Toxic waste can harm humans through ingestion, inhalation, and skin exposure. Effects of exposure include low birth weight, birth defects, and some cancers. Toxic waste is found in streams, soil, and groundwater and causes damage to plants and animals. Major nuclear accidents like Chernobyl and Three Mile Island released radioactive toxic waste and demonstrated the health hazards of radiation exposure.

Hurricane Katrina caused massive destruction along the Gulf Coast in 2005. Photos show homes demolished by the strong winds and high floodwaters that swept through New Orleans. People were trapped in their homes without food, water, or power for days. The storm proved highly dangerous for those who did not evacuate and risky for first responders involved in search and rescue efforts. Despite the widespread damage, some survivors were able to make it out alive.

The document discusses techniques for handling information overload as a librarian or library user. It suggests using productivity tools like blogs, RSS feeds, and email clients to manage information intake in a balanced way. Some tips include focusing on a few important tasks, removing distractions, and letting important information come naturally through passive consumption instead of trying to intake all information at once. Multitasking is presented as bad for productivity and concentration is emphasized as important.

William was an 83-year-old male who had smoked cigarettes for 60 years and worked in mining, putting him at high risk for lung cancer; he developed a nagging cough and hoarseness and was diagnosed with lung cancer by his doctor after his family urged him to seek medical help; had he quit smoking 50 years ago and chosen a different career, he may have been able to prevent getting lung cancer and watch his grandson graduate from college.
TRASH MEET YOUR MATCH!
Of the waste produced in America, over 85% could be recycled but ends up in landfills and oceans instead. Plastic makes up most of the garbage dumped into the oceans, and nearly half of American lakes are polluted. Each American throws away over 3,000 pounds of trash per year. The document recommends reducing waste by recycling more of what can be recycled, reusing items like water bottles, and bringing reusable bags to stores.

Beyond Google
This document discusses the role of information professionals in the digital age. It argues that while search engines like Google are useful, they do not replace the curation and expertise provided by information professionals. The role of information professionals is to filter information and provide targeted, quality resources on specific topics. The document presents DrugScope as fulfilling this role for information on alcohol and drugs (AOD), creating a customized search engine and resources for this topic. It aims to go beyond basic search results to offer in-depth and authoritative content through manual and semi-automated methods.
Evaluating websites
The document discusses evaluating the credibility of websites. It provides examples of four websites to analyze using the R.E.A.L. method, which stands for Read the URL, Examine the content, Ask about the author or owner, and Look at the links. The document identifies two of the example websites as hoaxes based on this evaluation method.

One Week | One Tool: ultra-rapid open source development among strangers
This document summarizes a project called "One Week | One Tool" where strangers collaborated online for one week to rapidly develop an open source tool. The project aimed to build something useful for digital humanities. Participants were divided into teams focused on outreach, user experience, and development. Through parallel development and consensus-based decision making, the teams worked adaptably to create Anthologize, a tool to convert blogs into books.
TEDxUWMilwaukee: Rethinking Research Data
This document discusses issues with reproducibility and data availability in scientific research. It notes that published research is merely an advertisement of the underlying scholarship and data, and that data availability declines rapidly as articles age. Several studies are cited showing limited ability to translate preclinical findings to the clinic due to reproducibility issues, and examples of academic fraud are provided that undermine trust in published results without available data. Overall, the document argues for the importance of data availability to verify and build upon published research findings.

Miners were trapped underground in a collapsed Chilean mine in August 2010. Rocks and debris collapsed, burying the miners alive deep underground in the mine. Their rescue involved extensive relief efforts over months, costing billions, to save the miners through a narrow shaft. The miners endured difficult conditions in tight spaces for over two months before all 33 were successfully rescued. The rescue had long term psychological effects on the miners and economic impacts for Chile.

The student wrote reports on various weather topics including air pressure and the water cycle. They found the cause section easiest to write but impact was hardest as they lacked information and ideas. They were proud of their avalanche report, which they felt they wrote well. For an avalanche research project, the student found information on cause easier to find than impact. They delivered a documentary on avalanches and will aim to add more drama in future speeches.
Rwanda Genocide by Berkely
This document appears to be a student paper about the Rwandan genocide of 1994. It contains images related to the genocide with captions and citations. The genocide began after the plane carrying Rwandan president Juvénal Habyarimana was shot down, which sparked mass killings of Tutsi and moderate Hutu by Hutu extremists. Over 800,000 people were killed in just 100 days. The United Nations and other countries failed to intervene to stop the genocide. Survivors and witnesses still struggle with the memories and aftermath decades later.
Science Diseases
The document discusses different types of pathogens including viruses, bacteria, and parasites. It provides images of polio drops, mosquitoes, macrophages attacking viruses and bacteria, and microscopic images of flagella and microbes. The document highlights the difference between cold and flu viruses while also showing how vaccines can provide protection against pathogens.

Turning awareness into action (samantha chow 10139104 film260)
This study examined the effects of television food advertising on preschool children's snack choices and parental purchasing requests. Researchers showed children advertisements for healthy or unhealthy snacks and then observed which snacks the children selected. They also had parents complete surveys about purchasing requests. The results showed that children who saw ads for unhealthy snacks were more likely to choose those snacks and ask their parents to purchase them. However, ads for healthy snacks did not significantly increase children's choices of or requests for those foods. This suggests television food advertising influences young children's preferences and purchase requests toward unhealthy snacks.

Libraries empowering scholars (and scholarly communication) through #altmetrics
This document discusses how libraries can empower scholars and scholarly communication through altmetrics. It notes that traditional research evaluation focuses too much on impact factor and that altmetrics provide additional ways to measure impact, including social media mentions, citations in policy documents or Wikipedia. The document recommends that libraries can help by raising expectations of diverse metrics, advocating for their use in evaluation, and supporting altmetrics tools. This would help move evaluations away from a single-dimensional system and capture different types of research impact.
Cyber bullying

Research shows that corporal punishment of children is linked to negative long-term effects. Studies presented by Murray Straus found corporal punishment contributes to aggression, criminal behavior, spousal abuse, and child abuse. About 80% of adults abused as children met criteria for at least one psychological disorder. An estimated 905,000 children were victims of abuse or neglect in 2006 in the US, which can have lifelong negative consequences. Over 1,800 children die from abuse or neglect each year in the US, and about 30% of abused children will later abuse their own children.
Experimenting with the Ethics of Experimentation, Spark the Change 2015
Lean Startup and Lean UX give you powerful experiment driven methods to learn about customers, products and services. But you’re not dealing with test tubes and chemicals. You’re dealing with people.
The customer backlash from some of Facebook’s experiments last year shows that what companies can do doesn’t always match up with what customers think they should do. How do we keep doing valuable experiments without hurting our customers or damaging our reputation?
There’s a word you hear from experimental scientists you don’t often hear on product teams: Ethics.
How does your organisation help you create ethical experiments? Professional scientists have people & processes to help them deal with ethical issues — experiments pass both professional and institutional standards. Is anyone thinking about ethical standards inside your company — or is the issue being ignored completely?

Endurance[1]
Cardio-respiratory endurance allows the body to perform physical activities for longer periods of time with less effort through continuous or interval training exercises that elevate the heart rate for at least 20 minutes 3 times a week. Muscular endurance can be improved through circuit training exercises that gradually increase the time or number of repetitions performed at each station. Regular training results in increased lung capacity, more oxygen delivery to working muscles, an enlarged heart that pumps more blood, and an aerobic threshold allowing sustained activity.
D day
D-Day was a massive Allied invasion of German-occupied northern France on June 6, 1944, known as Operation Overlord, involving over 150,000 British, Canadian and American forces. The goal was to liberate France from German control and open a second front against Germany in Europe to help turn the tide of World War 2 in favor of the Allies. The successful invasion marked a major turning point, as it forced Germany to fight a two-front war on both eastern and western fronts, weakening their forces and resources.

La valutazione antitrust degli sconti fedeltà nel diritto della concorrenza europeo: alla ricerca di un approccio economico e di una teoria del danno per il consumatore
Author:
Dr Danilo Samà (LUISS “Guido Carli” University, Law & Economics LAB)
Abstract:
L’articolo si propone di comprendere in base a quali condizioni sconti fedeltà adottati da un’impresa dominante comportino effetti anticoncorrenziali. Gli schemi fidelizzanti, infatti, sebbene estremamente frequenti nelle transazioni di mercato, qualora applicati da un’impresa dominante, rischiano di essere giudicati illeciti per sé, come comprovato dalla casistica giurisprudenziale finora emersa a livello europeo e dal severo scrutinio riservato delle autorità nazionali della concorrenza. Il lavoro dapprima fornisce una panoramica analitica delle pratiche fidelizzanti, concentrando in particolare l’attenzione sugli sconti retroattivi, ed approfondisce importanti implicazioni economiche, come gli effetti lock-in e suction. Successivamente vengono discusse le novità introdotte dalle linee guida per l’applicazione dell’Art. 102 TFUE, le quali richiedono un’analisi concreta degli effetti di mercato delle condotte escludenti. Alla luce di un estensivo studio dell’as-efficient competitor test, il nuovo approccio della Commissione Europea verso gli sconti fedeltà viene analizzato in dettaglio con riferimento ad un caso antitrust recentemente esaminato a livello europeo (Tomra). In conclusione, viene sviluppato un approccio economico per l’analisi degli effetti, e dunque della legalità, degli schemi fidelizzanti, in conformità con una coerente teoria del danno per il consumatore.
