JOHNNY'S POST:
Select one of the following tools:
Cummings and Worley’s five dimensions of leading and managing change.
Explain how a leader could use this tool in guiding an organizational change.
I believe all leaders could help their organization by learning the five dimensions of leading and managing effective change. As stated in the text, 2016, “Those dimensions include motivating change, creating a vision, developing political support, managing the transition, and sustaining momentum.” (Ch 3.2, Para 20). All five of these dimensions are essential for a business that is going through an organizational change.
As a company evolves and expands over time there will be a time where the leaders of the company will have to implement change to stay effective and up to date. The first step of motivating change is very important because people generally reject change. Leaders must motivate the change otherwise the employee’s will not buy into the concept. Creating a vision helps the company understand what their goals are. Without establishing a vision, it would be impossible for people to know what the goals for the company are. This would lead to confusion and most likely low morale. Political support helps the new change become accepted. If there is a lack of support the new change could fail to gain momentum. The transition of change will not happen overnight. I believe the final two dimensions are often overlooked and not implemented in many companies. If the momentum is not sustained most people will fall back into old habits. It's important that leaders periodically check up on progress and reassure its employee’s that the change is working.

SARA'S POST:
Hey Class,
Per Weiss (2016), Cummings and Worley's five dimensions of leading and managing change provide companies reliable guidance and direction for taking steps toward organizational change. These dimensions, motivating change, creating a vision, developing political support, managing the transition, and sustaining momentum, are easy to understand and, if followed correctly, will assist in a smooth transition in what could serve as an otherwise chaotic period (Weiss, 2016).
Motivating Change
I appreciate that Weiss (2016) acknowledges that many people are resistant to change. Often, when employees or stakeholders initially learn about upcoming changes, their first reaction is one of hesitation and insecurity. Employers should offer buy-in to a new direction. Offer a compelling reason for the change, proving the move is positive and beneficial. A one-on-one conversation with employees will provide a sense of security and personalize how the change will impact their position.

How might damage to different parts of the brain impact various processes related to sensation and perception?

Peer 1 (Jennie):
Sensation and perception both play a significant role in the sensory of how our brain functions. Perception is the way individuals see things or situations. Viewpoints may vary based on several things, including one’s environment, culture, traditions, and senses. That is when sensations come into play; seeing, touching, hearing, tasting, and feeling are all part of our sensory system. As mentioned by LeFrançois (2020), “Strictly speaking,
sensation
is the immediate response of our senses to sensory stimulation;
perception
is the brain’s interpretation of the signals it receives from its various sensory systems” (chapter 3.1).
Human development includes a variety other than just genes and science. Erik Erikson is a psychologist who has been examining the interaction between genes (nature) and environment (nurture). Different backgrounds impact nutrition and physical development because not every child is raised in similar homes. One household can have customs of bike riding every night and include full servings of vegetables in every meal. Another house might have movie night along with a full bar of snacks and treats on the daily. The nutritional and physical development of the children in each household will be different because of the home environment. Social development is affected by childcare arrangements, culture, and traditions of the parents. The movie
Babies
[Streaming video], demonstrates how culture is a part of this development and precisely how nurture is the primary variable. When it comes to parenting styles and emotional development, the main thing to consider is the parent’s childhood. There are four categories into which parents fall under, each one having a different impact on how children emotionally develop. The different styles are; autonomous, usually, have securely attached children. There is dismissing and preoccupied parents, who typically have insecurely attached children, and unresolved who likely manifest disorganized-disoriented attachment. This development is influenced by both nature and nurture but develops positively or negatively depending on the child’s environment.
The relationship between perception and development is affected by one’s environment, family beliefs, and the way they demonstrate affection. As mentioned in the
Parental ethnotheories of children’s learning

Dimensions Of Security Threats In Cloud
Computing: A Case Study
Mathew Nicho, University of Dubai, UAE
Mahmoud Hendy, University of Dubai, UAE
ABSTRACT
Even though cloud computing, as a model, is not new, organizations are increasingly
implementing it because of its large-scale computation and data storage, flexible scalability,
relative reliability, and cost economy of services. However, despite its rapid adoption in some
sectors and domains, it is evident from research and statistics, that security-related threats are the
most noticeable barrier to its widespread adoption. To investigate the reasons behind these
threats, the authors used available literature to identify and aggregate information about IS
security threats in cloud computing. Based on this information, the authors explored the
dimensions of the nature of threat by interviewing a cloud computing practitioner in an
organization that uses both the private and public cloud deployment models. From these findings,
the authors found that IS security threats in cloud computing must be defined at different levels;
namely, at the business and technical level, as well as from a generic and cloud-specific threat
perspective. Based on their findings, the authors developed the Cloud Computing Threat Matrix
(CCTM) which provides a two-dimensional definition of threat that enables cloud users to fully
comprehend the concerns so that they can make relevant decisions while availing cloud computing
services.
Keywords: Cloud Computing; Security; Cloud Security Issues Taxonomy; Threat Matrix
INTRODUCTION
ecause a cloud is a collection of inter-connected and virtualized computers (Buyya et al., 2008), the
main enabling technology for cloud computing is virtualization. The basic concept of cloud is based
on the premise that instead of having selected information systems (IS) resources, such as software
and data stored locally on a user’s or organization’s computer systems, these resources can be stored on Internet
servers, called “clouds,” and accessed anytime, anywhere as a paid service on the Internet. Cloud computing has the
potential to bring significant benefits to small- and medium-sized businesses by reducing the costs of investment in
information communication technology (ICT) infrastructure because it enables the use of services, such as
computation, software, data access, and storage by end-users, without the need to know the physical location and
configuration of the system that delivers the services (Mujinga & Chipangura, 2011). However, it has been stated
that organizations adopt cloud computing projects and systems cautiously while maximizing benefits and
minimizing risks (Lawler, Joseph, & Howell-Barber, 2012). Cloud computing is expected to play .

Response post #1
Savannah Ventura
Accreditation is a comprehensive evaluation process in which a health care organization’s systems, processes, and performance are examined by an impartial, external organization to ensure that it is conducting business in a manner that meets predetermined criteria and is consistent with national standards (Teitelbaum & Wilensky, 2017). The various organizations in the United States that perform accreditation establish standards for healthcare delivery. These agencies, such as the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAD), The Joint Commission, and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), to name a few, play essential roles in ensuring the quality of healthcare. Accreditation programs with meaningful quality measures help foster continuous quality improvement by health plans and are a necessary complement to rigorous state and federal regulation of health plans (Wickersham & Basey, 2016).
Accreditation bodies or entities evaluate and rate a wide variety of health care organizations, including care management companies, health insurance plans, pharmacy benefit managers, utilization review organizations, wellness organizations, and other health vendors, both in the commercial sphere and through government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid (Dunlap et al., 2016). Within the ACA, accreditation serves as a recognized component to states and state legislators to implement health reform and address health care issues. Many state laws already include accreditation standards for health care management, health care operations, and health information technology and pharmacy quality management activities as a quality assurance tool (Bauchner, Fontanarosa, & Thompson, 2015).
Later, for hospitals and other health care institutions, the federal government and states used private accreditation as evidence of compliance with Medicare conditions of participation and state licensure laws, respectively. In so doing, the government effectively delegated regulatory responsibility for assuring that health care institutions meet the requisite quality standards for participation in their respective programs. When government relies on private accreditors to perform this vital function, questions arise about whether all the legitimate interests of the public served by public health insurance programs are adequately protected and promoted (Bauchner et al., 2015).
By outsourcing, hospitals and health systems can alleviate the numerous, complex responsibilities of an understaffed, unqualified internal department. Instead, they can entrust the credentialing and privileging tasks to a qualified .

What happens after treatment? A
systematic review of relapse, remission, and
recovery in anorexia nervosa
Sahib S. Khalsa1,2*, Larissa C. Portnoff3, Danyale McCurdy-McKinnon4 and Jamie D. Feusner5
Abstract
Background: Relapse after treatment for anorexia nervosa (AN) is a significant clinical problem. Given the level of
chronicity, morbidity, and mortality experienced by this population, it is imperative to understand the driving forces
behind apparently high relapse rates. However, there is a lack of consensus in the field on an operational definition
of relapse, which hinders precise and reliable estimates of the severity of this issue. The primary goal of this paper
was to review prior studies of AN addressing definitions of relapse, as well as relapse rates.
Methods: Data sources included PubMed and PsychINFO through March 19th, 2016. A systematic review was
performed following the PRISMA guidelines. A total of (N = 27) peer-reviewed English language studies addressing
relapse, remission, and recovery in AN were included.
Results: Definitions of relapse in AN as well as definitions of remission or recovery, on which relapse is predicated,
varied substantially in the literature. Reported relapse rates ranged between 9 and 52%, and tended to increase
with increasing duration of follow-up. There was consensus that risk for relapse in persons with AN is especially
high within the first year following treatment.
Discussion: Standardized definitions of relapse, as well as remission and recovery, are needed in AN to accelerate
clinical and research progress. This should improve the ability of future longitudinal studies to identify clinical,
demographic, and biological characteristics in AN that predict relapse versus resilience, and to comparatively
evaluate relapse prevention strategies. We propose standardized criteria for relapse, remission, and recovery, for
further consideration.

mon agreement on how to define relapse. In this study,
we reviewed previous studies of relapse, remission, and
recovery following treatment for anorexia nervosa. We
found that there were many different definitions for
these terms, which resulted in different estimates of re-
lapse rate. To understand what drives relapse it is
important to have a consistent definition across studies.
To help this discussion we propose common criteria for
relapse, remission, and recovery from anorexia nervosa.
Background
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious psychiatric illness
with amongst the highest mortality rates of any mental
disorder—up to 18% in long-term follow-up studies [1–
3]. Most cases emerge during adolescence, and tend to-
wards a protracted and chronic course [4, 5]. In females,
AN has a p.

Review Instructions for Essay 4--The Research Paper
The instructions and guides for the research paper are linked below.
In this class you have a rare opportunity to develop, revise/edit, and resubmit your work. Your revised exploratory paper (Essay 2) will become the introduction to your research paper. The revised position paper (Essay 3) will become the body. In addition, you will create a conclusion or "solutions" section for the final project. Note, however, that significant revisions are expected, so you should carefully review the edited draft and rubric evaluations for both essays 2/3 before you begin your final essay.
The final research papers must meet ALL of the minimum criteria for the assignment (in terms of structure, development, documentation style, quality and number of research sources, and writing skills) to be eligible for a score. In other words, you must receive a mark of "competent" in all of these areas to receive a grade for this assignment.
English 103: Essay 4—Research Paper
In the Research Paper, you will further develop, revise, and build upon the single perspective argument you have been developing all semester. Your final assignment should demonstrate your ability to apply the principles of argument discussed in the class throughout the semester and it should demonstrate your ability to use critical thinking when discussing a controversial issue.
Directions:
Prepare an 8-10 page research essay that builds upon the single perspective argument paper. The purpose of this assignment is to build upon what you have already created in the course. Therefore, the introduction of your research paper should be drawn from your Exploratory Paper, laying the foundation for the reader by presenting all sides of the issue, the exigence, etc. The body should be drawn from the Position Paper, which incorporates research to support your claim and sub-claims. Obviously, you cannot include the entire portion of each of the previous papers, and your final research paper should show that you’ve developed areas requiring development and made significant revisions to those sections of your papers requiring revision. The idea is to pull sections and points from previous essays. Use comments from me to revise those papers as you incorporate portions of them into this final project.
In addition to revising/developing the exploratory and position papers to serve as the introduction and body of the research paper, you will write an extended conclusion in which you focus on a viable solution and/or conclusion to the issue. For the conclusion, provide a means of solving the problem indicated by your topic. Consider the audience, establish common ground, and provide details for how to implement the solution. For example, if the position paper argued that bilingual education is necessary in California schools, the solution would discuss how to implement bilingual education programs in our California schools.

Theaters vs. Home Movies
There are several important differences between watching a movie in a theater and watching a movie at home. One difference is in the level of comfort. In the theater, one has to sit upright for at least a couple of hours. This can get uncomfortable. Also, one has to wear appropriate clothing, such as pants, shoes, and a shirt, which is sometimes not so relaxing. However, at home, one can sit anywhere one likes. One can stretch out on a couch or even on the floor. It is also possible to wear anything one likes. Sweatpants and even pajamas are perfectly acceptable at home. Another difference is in convenience. When one goes to the theater, it is necessary to drive. This might be in inclement weather. One has to go at a specific time as well. If the movie starts at 7:00, one has to be there at 7:00. In contrast to the theater, it is much more convenient to watch a movie at home. One does not have to drive anywhere when one stays at home. One can watch the rain or the snow from inside. Also, one can start the movie at any time that is convenient. Finally, cost is probably the most consequential difference. At the theater, one has to buy tickets. These can cost up to $10.00 a person. Food is also outrageously expensive. A small popcorn and coke cost $15.00. This can really add up for a family of four or five. Just last week, my family went to see a movie, and we spent $100.00 on ticket and food. Unlike the theater, watching a movie at home is much cheaper. The o.

MERS coronavirus: diagnostics,
epidemiology and transmission
Ian M. Mackay1,2,3* and Katherine E. Arden2
Abstract
The first known cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), associated with infection by a novel coronavirus (CoV),
occurred in 2012 in Jordan but were reported retrospectively. The case first to be publicly reported was from Jeddah, in
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Since then, MERS-CoV sequences have been found in a bat and in many dromedary
camels (DC). MERS-CoV is enzootic in DC across the Arabian Peninsula and in parts of Africa, causing mild upper
respiratory tract illness in its camel reservoir and sporadic, but relatively rare human infections. Precisely how virus transmits
to humans remains unknown but close and lengthy exposure appears to be a requirement. The KSA is the focal point of
MERS, with the majority of human cases. In humans, MERS is mostly known as a lower respiratory tract (LRT) disease
involving fever, cough, breathing difficulties and pneumonia that may progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome,
multiorgan failure and death in 20 % to 40 % of those infected. However, MERS-CoV has also been detected in mild and
influenza-like illnesses and in those with no signs or symptoms. Older males most obviously suffer severe disease and
MERS patients often have comorbidities. Compared to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), another sometimes- fatal
zoonotic coronavirus disease that has since disappeared, MERS progresses more rapidly to respiratory failure and acute
kidney injury (it also has an affinity for growth in kidney cells under laboratory conditions), is more frequently reported in
patients with underlying disease and is more often fatal. Most human cases of MERS have been linked to lapses in
infection prevention and control (IPC) in healthcare settings, with approximately 20 % of all virus detections reported
among healthcare workers (HCWs) and higher exposures in those with occupations that bring them into close contact
with camels. Sero-surveys have found widespread evidence of past infection in adult camels and limited past exposure
among humans. Sensitive, validated reverse transcriptase real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-rtPCR)-based diagnostics
have been available almost from the start of the emergence of MERS. While the basic virology of MERS-CoV has advanced
over the past three years, understanding of the interplay between camel, environment, and human remains limited.

JOHNNY'S POST:
Select one of the following tools:
Cummings and Worley’s five dimensions of leading and managing change.
Explain how a leader could use this tool in guiding an organizational change.
I believe all leaders could help their organization by learning the five dimensions of leading and managing effective change. As stated in the text, 2016, “Those dimensions include motivating change, creating a vision, developing political support, managing the transition, and sustaining momentum.” (Ch 3.2, Para 20). All five of these dimensions are essential for a business that is going through an organizational change.
As a company evolves and expands over time there will be a time where the leaders of the company will have to implement change to stay effective and up to date. The first step of motivating change is very important because people generally reject change. Leaders must motivate the change otherwise the employee’s will not buy into the concept. Creating a vision helps the company understand what their goals are. Without establishing a vision, it would be impossible for people to know what the goals for the company are. This would lead to confusion and most likely low morale. Political support helps the new change become accepted. If there is a lack of support the new change could fail to gain momentum. The transition of change will not happen overnight. I believe the final two dimensions are often overlooked and not implemented in many companies. If the momentum is not sustained most people will fall back into old habits. It's important that leaders periodically check up on progress and reassure its employee’s that the change is working.

SARA'S POST:
Hey Class,
Per Weiss (2016), Cummings and Worley's five dimensions of leading and managing change provide companies reliable guidance and direction for taking steps toward organizational change. These dimensions, motivating change, creating a vision, developing political support, managing the transition, and sustaining momentum, are easy to understand and, if followed correctly, will assist in a smooth transition in what could serve as an otherwise chaotic period (Weiss, 2016).
Motivating Change
I appreciate that Weiss (2016) acknowledges that many people are resistant to change. Often, when employees or stakeholders initially learn about upcoming changes, their first reaction is one of hesitation and insecurity. Employers should offer buy-in to a new direction. Offer a compelling reason for the change, proving the move is positive and beneficial. A one-on-one conversation with employees will provide a sense of security and personalize how the change will impact their position.

Peer 1 (Jennie):
Sensation and perception both play a significant role in the sensory of how our brain functions. Perception is the way individuals see things or situations. Viewpoints may vary based on several things, including one’s environment, culture, traditions, and senses. That is when sensations come into play; seeing, touching, hearing, tasting, and feeling are all part of our sensory system. As mentioned by LeFrançois (2020), “Strictly speaking,
sensation
is the immediate response of our senses to sensory stimulation;
perception
is the brain’s interpretation of the signals it receives from its various sensory systems” (chapter 3.1).
Human development includes a variety other than just genes and science. Erik Erikson is a psychologist who has been examining the interaction between genes (nature) and environment (nurture). Different backgrounds impact nutrition and physical development because not every child is raised in similar homes. One household can have customs of bike riding every night and include full servings of vegetables in every meal. Another house might have movie night along with a full bar of snacks and treats on the daily. The nutritional and physical development of the children in each household will be different because of the home environment. Social development is affected by childcare arrangements, culture, and traditions of the parents. The movie
Babies
[Streaming video], demonstrates how culture is a part of this development and precisely how nurture is the primary variable. When it comes to parenting styles and emotional development, the main thing to consider is the parent’s childhood. There are four categories into which parents fall under, each one having a different impact on how children emotionally develop. The different styles are; autonomous, usually, have securely attached children. There is dismissing and preoccupied parents, who typically have insecurely attached children, and unresolved who likely manifest disorganized-disoriented attachment. This development is influenced by both nature and nurture but develops positively or negatively depending on the child’s environment.
The relationship between perception and development is affected by one’s environment, family beliefs, and the way they demonstrate affection. As mentioned in the

Dimensions Of Security Threats In Cloud
Computing: A Case Study
Mathew Nicho, University of Dubai, UAE
Mahmoud Hendy, University of Dubai, UAE
ABSTRACT
Even though cloud computing, as a model, is not new, organizations are increasingly
implementing it because of its large-scale computation and data storage, flexible scalability,
relative reliability, and cost economy of services. However, despite its rapid adoption in some
sectors and domains, it is evident from research and statistics, that security-related threats are the
most noticeable barrier to its widespread adoption. To investigate the reasons behind these
threats, the authors used available literature to identify and aggregate information about IS
security threats in cloud computing. Based on this information, the authors explored the
dimensions of the nature of threat by interviewing a cloud computing practitioner in an
organization that uses both the private and public cloud deployment models. From these findings,
the authors found that IS security threats in cloud computing must be defined at different levels;
namely, at the business and technical level, as well as from a generic and cloud-specific threat
perspective. Based on their findings, the authors developed the Cloud Computing Threat Matrix
(CCTM) which provides a two-dimensional definition of threat that enables cloud users to fully
comprehend the concerns so that they can make relevant decisions while availing cloud computing
services.
Keywords: Cloud Computing; Security; Cloud Security Issues Taxonomy; Threat Matrix
INTRODUCTION
ecause a cloud is a collection of inter-connected and virtualized computers (Buyya et al., 2008), the
main enabling technology for cloud computing is virtualization. The basic concept of cloud is based
on the premise that instead of having selected information systems (IS) resources, such as software
and data stored locally on a user’s or organization’s computer systems, these resources can be stored on Internet
servers, called “clouds,” and accessed anytime, anywhere as a paid service on the Internet. Cloud computing has the
potential to bring significant benefits to small- and medium-sized businesses by reducing the costs of investment in
information communication technology (ICT) infrastructure because it enables the use of services, such as
computation, software, data access, and storage by end-users, without the need to know the physical location and
configuration of the system that delivers the services (Mujinga & Chipangura, 2011). However, it has been stated
that organizations adopt cloud computing projects and systems cautiously while maximizing benefits and
minimizing risks (Lawler, Joseph, & Howell-Barber, 2012). Cloud computing is expected to play .

Savannah Ventura
Accreditation is a comprehensive evaluation process in which a health care organization’s systems, processes, and performance are examined by an impartial, external organization to ensure that it is conducting business in a manner that meets predetermined criteria and is consistent with national standards (Teitelbaum & Wilensky, 2017). The various organizations in the United States that perform accreditation establish standards for healthcare delivery. These agencies, such as the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAD), The Joint Commission, and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), to name a few, play essential roles in ensuring the quality of healthcare. Accreditation programs with meaningful quality measures help foster continuous quality improvement by health plans and are a necessary complement to rigorous state and federal regulation of health plans (Wickersham & Basey, 2016).
Accreditation bodies or entities evaluate and rate a wide variety of health care organizations, including care management companies, health insurance plans, pharmacy benefit managers, utilization review organizations, wellness organizations, and other health vendors, both in the commercial sphere and through government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid (Dunlap et al., 2016). Within the ACA, accreditation serves as a recognized component to states and state legislators to implement health reform and address health care issues. Many state laws already include accreditation standards for health care management, health care operations, and health information technology and pharmacy quality management activities as a quality assurance tool (Bauchner, Fontanarosa, & Thompson, 2015).
Later, for hospitals and other health care institutions, the federal government and states used private accreditation as evidence of compliance with Medicare conditions of participation and state licensure laws, respectively. In so doing, the government effectively delegated regulatory responsibility for assuring that health care institutions meet the requisite quality standards for participation in their respective programs. When government relies on private accreditors to perform this vital function, questions arise about whether all the legitimate interests of the public served by public health insurance programs are adequately protected and promoted (Bauchner et al., 2015).
By outsourcing, hospitals and health systems can alleviate the numerous, complex responsibilities of an understaffed, unqualified internal department. Instead, they can entrust the credentialing and privileging tasks to a qualified .

What happens after treatment? A
systematic review of relapse, remission, and
recovery in anorexia nervosa
Sahib S. Khalsa1,2*, Larissa C. Portnoff3, Danyale McCurdy-McKinnon4 and Jamie D. Feusner5
Abstract
Background: Relapse after treatment for anorexia nervosa (AN) is a significant clinical problem. Given the level of
chronicity, morbidity, and mortality experienced by this population, it is imperative to understand the driving forces
behind apparently high relapse rates. However, there is a lack of consensus in the field on an operational definition
of relapse, which hinders precise and reliable estimates of the severity of this issue. The primary goal of this paper
was to review prior studies of AN addressing definitions of relapse, as well as relapse rates.
Methods: Data sources included PubMed and PsychINFO through March 19th, 2016. A systematic review was
performed following the PRISMA guidelines. A total of (N = 27) peer-reviewed English language studies addressing
relapse, remission, and recovery in AN were included.
Results: Definitions of relapse in AN as well as definitions of remission or recovery, on which relapse is predicated,
varied substantially in the literature. Reported relapse rates ranged between 9 and 52%, and tended to increase
with increasing duration of follow-up. There was consensus that risk for relapse in persons with AN is especially
high within the first year following treatment.
Discussion: Standardized definitions of relapse, as well as remission and recovery, are needed in AN to accelerate
clinical and research progress. This should improve the ability of future longitudinal studies to identify clinical,
demographic, and biological characteristics in AN that predict relapse versus resilience, and to comparatively
evaluate relapse prevention strategies. We propose standardized criteria for relapse, remission, and recovery, for
further consideration.

Plain English Summary
Relapse occurs frequently in individuals receiving treat-
ment for anorexia nervosa. However, there is no com-
mon agreement on how to define relapse. In this study,
we reviewed previous studies of relapse, remission, and
recovery following treatment for anorexia nervosa. We
found that there were many different definitions for
these terms, which resulted in different estimates of re-
lapse rate. To understand what drives relapse it is
important to have a consistent definition across studies.
To help this discussion we propose common criteria for
relapse, remission, and recovery from anorexia nervosa.
Background
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious psychiatric illness
with amongst the highest mortality rates of any mental
disorder—up to 18% in long-term follow-up studies [1–
3]. Most cases emerge during adolescence, and tend to-
wards a protracted and chronic course [4, 5]. In females,

Review Instructions for Essay 4--The Research Paper
The instructions and guides for the research paper are linked below.
In this class you have a rare opportunity to develop, revise/edit, and resubmit your work. Your revised exploratory paper (Essay 2) will become the introduction to your research paper. The revised position paper (Essay 3) will become the body. In addition, you will create a conclusion or "solutions" section for the final project. Note, however, that significant revisions are expected, so you should carefully review the edited draft and rubric evaluations for both essays 2/3 before you begin your final essay.
The final research papers must meet ALL of the minimum criteria for the assignment (in terms of structure, development, documentation style, quality and number of research sources, and writing skills) to be eligible for a score. In other words, you must receive a mark of "competent" in all of these areas to receive a grade for this assignment.
English 103: Essay 4—Research Paper
In the Research Paper, you will further develop, revise, and build upon the single perspective argument you have been developing all semester. Your final assignment should demonstrate your ability to apply the principles of argument discussed in the class throughout the semester and it should demonstrate your ability to use critical thinking when discussing a controversial issue.
Directions:
Prepare an 8-10 page research essay that builds upon the single perspective argument paper. The purpose of this assignment is to build upon what you have already created in the course. Therefore, the introduction of your research paper should be drawn from your Exploratory Paper, laying the foundation for the reader by presenting all sides of the issue, the exigence, etc. The body should be drawn from the Position Paper, which incorporates research to support your claim and sub-claims. Obviously, you cannot include the entire portion of each of the previous papers, and your final research paper should show that you’ve developed areas requiring development and made significant revisions to those sections of your papers requiring revision. The idea is to pull sections and points from previous essays. Use comments from me to revise those papers as you incorporate portions of them into this final project.
In addition to revising/developing the exploratory and position papers to serve as the introduction and body of the research paper, you will write an extended conclusion in which you focus on a viable solution and/or conclusion to the issue. For the conclusion, provide a means of solving the problem indicated by your topic. Consider the audience, establish common ground, and provide details for how to implement the solution. For example, if the position paper argued that bilingual education is necessary in California schools, the solution would discuss how to implement bilingual education programs in our California schools.

Theaters vs. Home Movies
There are several important differences between watching a movie in a theater and watching a movie at home. One difference is in the level of comfort. In the theater, one has to sit upright for at least a couple of hours. This can get uncomfortable. Also, one has to wear appropriate clothing, such as pants, shoes, and a shirt, which is sometimes not so relaxing. However, at home, one can sit anywhere one likes. One can stretch out on a couch or even on the floor. It is also possible to wear anything one likes. Sweatpants and even pajamas are perfectly acceptable at home. Another difference is in convenience. When one goes to the theater, it is necessary to drive. This might be in inclement weather. One has to go at a specific time as well. If the movie starts at 7:00, one has to be there at 7:00. In contrast to the theater, it is much more convenient to watch a movie at home. One does not have to drive anywhere when one stays at home. One can watch the rain or the snow from inside. Also, one can start the movie at any time that is convenient. Finally, cost is probably the most consequential difference. At the theater, one has to buy tickets. These can cost up to $10.00 a person. Food is also outrageously expensive. A small popcorn and coke cost $15.00. This can really add up for a family of four or five. Just last week, my family went to see a movie, and we spent $100.00 on ticket and food. Unlike the theater, watching a movie at home is much cheaper. The o.

MERS coronavirus: diagnostics,
epidemiology and transmission
Ian M. Mackay1,2,3* and Katherine E. Arden2
Abstract
The first known cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), associated with infection by a novel coronavirus (CoV),
occurred in 2012 in Jordan but were reported retrospectively. The case first to be publicly reported was from Jeddah, in
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Since then, MERS-CoV sequences have been found in a bat and in many dromedary
camels (DC). MERS-CoV is enzootic in DC across the Arabian Peninsula and in parts of Africa, causing mild upper
respiratory tract illness in its camel reservoir and sporadic, but relatively rare human infections. Precisely how virus transmits
to humans remains unknown but close and lengthy exposure appears to be a requirement. The KSA is the focal point of
MERS, with the majority of human cases. In humans, MERS is mostly known as a lower respiratory tract (LRT) disease
involving fever, cough, breathing difficulties and pneumonia that may progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome,
multiorgan failure and death in 20 % to 40 % of those infected. However, MERS-CoV has also been detected in mild and
influenza-like illnesses and in those with no signs or symptoms. Older males most obviously suffer severe disease and
MERS patients often have comorbidities. Compared to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), another sometimes- fatal
zoonotic coronavirus disease that has since disappeared, MERS progresses more rapidly to respiratory failure and acute
kidney injury (it also has an affinity for growth in kidney cells under laboratory conditions), is more frequently reported in
patients with underlying disease and is more often fatal. Most human cases of MERS have been linked to lapses in
infection prevention and control (IPC) in healthcare settings, with approximately 20 % of all virus detections reported
among healthcare workers (HCWs) and higher exposures in those with occupations that bring them into close contact
with camels. Sero-surveys have found widespread evidence of past infection in adult camels and limited past exposure
among humans. Sensitive, validated reverse transcriptase real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-rtPCR)-based diagnostics
have been available almost from the start of the emergence of MERS. While the basic virology of MERS-CoV has advanced
over the past three years, understanding of the interplay between camel, environment, and human remains limited.

Background
An email from Dr Ali Mohamed Zaki, an Egyptian
virologist working at the Dr Soliman Fakeeh Hospital in
Jeddah in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) an-
nounced the first culture of a new coronavirus to the
world. The email was published on the website of the
professional emerging diseases (ProMED) network on
20thSeptember 2012 [1] (Fig. 1) and described the first

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.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
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.
