This document discusses several potential technologies for identifying viable oocytes, including polar body biopsy, spindle imaging, and zona pellucida birefringence. Polar body biopsy and array comparative genomic hybridization can be used to assess chromosomal disorders in oocytes. Spindle imaging using polarization microscopy can identify the meiotic stage of an oocyte. Zona pellucida birefringence imaging using polarization microscopy provides information on cytoplasmic maturity, with more structured zonae correlating with better developmental potential. These technologies, especially polar body biopsy, spindle imaging, and zona imaging, may help select the most implantation-competent embryos.

The document outlines plans for the Open Data Institute (ODI) Leeds node to implement recommendations from a development review in order to further develop the organization. It discusses plans to: 1) develop a new website to provide more information and promote projects/events; 2) work with ODI HQ to optimize resources and training; and 3) publish a clearer vision, strategy, and 12-24 month business plan on the new website. It also notes initial steps taken to expand membership and engagement, identify resource needs, increase transparency, review the events program, and formalize governance arrangements with an advisory board.
1. The document provides guidelines for CARE Somalia/Somaliland on how to engage religious leaders in their women's empowerment programs. It is based on interviews and workshops with religious leaders and CARE staff.
2. A recent workshop with religious leaders in Burao was successful in getting their input and support. Leaders appreciated learning about CARE's work and challenges. Having both men and women participants worked well, though there were initial concerns about offending some leaders.
3. Experience shows it is best to work with moderate urban and rural religious leaders on a long-term basis. Getting input from leaders' other contacts like local Ministry officials can also be helpful.
Hoffman identified three childrearing strategies: induction, love withdrawal, and power assertion. Induction encourages empathy by explaining wrongdoings and consequences. Love withdrawal manipulates a child's feelings and undermines their independence. Power assertion, especially if inconsistent or excessive, is associated with low self-esteem, aggression, and delinquency later in life. The example of Lee shows how inconsistent punishment from his parents led to confusion and taking anger out on others. While parenting strategies influence delinquency, many factors are involved.

El documento define la identidad digital como el conjunto de expresiones que generamos y publicamos en línea que nos identifican a otros. Explica que la información digital tiene alta accesibilidad y persistencia, y que nuestra identidad también depende de lo que otros publiquen sobre nosotros. Finalmente, discute cómo las redes sociales ahora se usan en los procesos de selección de personal para conocer detalles sobre los candidatos más allá de sus calificaciones.
The "Hypodermic theory" assumed that mass media had a powerful and direct effect on audiences. It suggested that media could uniformly influence large groups by "injecting" them with targeted messages designed to trigger a desired response. This theory, which was popular in the 1940s-1950s, viewed audiences as powerless against media messages that could allegedly cause instant reactions without hesitation. While influential at the time, the theory is now criticized for ignoring audience interpretation and agency.

This document advertises spying software called 1TopSpy that allows users to track and monitor cell phones without detection. It claims the software can track location, read texts, calls logs, social media messages like WhatsApp, Facebook, Line and more. It then provides instructions on how to install 1TopSpy on a target phone to monitor it. Customer testimonials praise how 1TopSpy allows worried parents and employers to secretly monitor a phone's activity.
