Absorption issues with amino acids and vitaminsRichard Wang
This document discusses absorption issues with amino acids and vitamins and provides ways to increase their absorption. It outlines the essential and non-essential amino acids, their functions, and the 13 essential vitamins. Poor absorption of these nutrients can lead to growth, immunity, and health issues. To improve absorption, it is important to consume a balanced diet with proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and minerals to help transport vitamins and amino acids. Supplements like AstraGin may also help with absorption.
This document discusses protein, including its composition, classification, digestion, absorption, and food sources. Protein is made up of amino acids and is an essential part of our bodies, helping with growth, maintenance, and tissue replacement. There are various types of proteins classified by function, composition, shape, and nutritional value. Protein digestion begins in the stomach where pepsin breaks proteins into peptides and amino acids. Absorption mainly occurs in the small intestine where peptides of three amino acids or less are absorbed through the intestinal walls and broken down further. Common protein food sources include meat, eggs, dairy, and beans.
Protein is made up of long chains of amino acids and is essential for building, maintaining, and repairing cells. The human body needs 20 different amino acids, 12 of which can be produced internally while 8 must come from diet. Amino acids combine to form peptides and then polypeptides and various proteins which serve important functions throughout the body. Protein needs vary by individual but on average men need 55.5g and women 45g daily, with both plant and animal sources recommended. Deficiencies can cause diseases like kwashiorkor in parts of the world with limited protein access.

The document provides an overview of the digestive system and its role in breaking down foods into smaller molecules through physical and chemical digestion. It discusses the importance of a balanced diet that provides all necessary vitamins, minerals, and energy requirements. Deficiency in certain vitamins can lead to diseases like scurvy or rickets. The document also outlines daily recommended intake of vitamins, minerals, and energy for males and females of different ages.
Protein is made up of amino acids and is important for growth, repair of body tissue, and energy. There are essential amino acids that the body cannot produce and must be obtained through food. Complete proteins contain all essential amino acids and are found in animal products, soy, and poi. Proteins have different structures and functions, such as antibodies that defend the body, contractile proteins that enable movement, and enzymes that speed up chemical reactions. High protein diets are recommended for building muscle while low protein diets may be prescribed for kidney or liver disease. Protein deficiency can cause conditions like kwashiorkor with symptoms of apathy, diarrhea, and edema.
Protein is made up of chains of amino acids and is essential for building body tissue. It can serve as a fuel source, containing 4 calories per gram like carbohydrates. Proteins are involved in most bodily functions and processes. They are broken down into amino acids during digestion and some amino acids must be obtained through diet as the body cannot produce them. Not consuming enough protein can lead to muscle wasting and conditions like kwashiorkor characterized by edema and skin issues.
The document discusses different types of nutrients including proteins, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. It describes essential nutrients that must be obtained through diet as the body cannot produce them, and defines deficiency diseases that can result from not getting enough of certain nutrients. Examples are provided of studies conducted to determine recommended daily intake levels for various vitamins.
Proteins are essential nutrients that make up about 15% of the body and are involved in many bodily functions. They are composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks that form various protein configurations to determine their roles. It is important to obtain all nine essential amino acids from diet as the body can only produce eleven of the twenty total amino acids. Good sources of complete protein include meat, dairy, eggs and their alternatives, as well as various plant-based foods like nuts, seeds, beans and grains when combined. Healthy adults should aim to consume between 50-175 grams of protein daily depending on calorie needs and lifestyle.
Proteins are essential nutrients that make up about 15% of the body and are involved in many bodily functions. They are composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks that form various proteins when arranged in different configurations. It is essential to obtain 9 amino acids through diet as the body cannot produce them. Good sources of complete protein include meat, dairy, eggs, nuts, seeds, beans and grains. Healthy adults should aim to consume between 50-175 grams of protein per day depending on calorie needs and lifestyle.
Nutrients
What is the nutrient? Nutrients are any substances that the body requires to perform work and which provide energy to do work. The most common functions of nutrients are: they provide energy, make body structure, and maintain chemical processes in the body. There are two main types of nutrients, macronutrients (proteins, carbohydrates, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). We eat nutrients not only because we are hungry but also because all the daily routine movements, like walking, dancing, talking, and even watching TV or playing games also need energy. Humans need many nutrients, some of which the body synthesizes called non-essential nutrients, and which the body cannot synthesize are called essential nutrients.
Types of nutrients: requirement basis
Nutrients can be divided into two categories on the basis of body requirements, which are macronutrients and micronutrients.
1- Macronutrients: (macro means large) Macronutrients are those nutrients that the body requires eventually in larger quantities to function well to provide energy. E.g.: carbohydrates, proteins, fats.
2- Micronutrients: (micro means small) those nutrients which the body requires a small amount to perform vital works. need in milligrams or micrograms to energize the body. E.g.: vitamins (A, B, D, E, K) and minerals (calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, chloride, magnesium, iron, zinc, iodine, chromium, copper, fluoride, molybdenum, manganese, and selenium).
Rule of major nutrients
There are seven important nutrients present in diets, but five are the most important for the body to do vital functions. These nutrients are protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. And other two nutrients are water and roughage which do not provide nutrition to the body but perform important functions.
Protein
Protein is the building block of a body. It is composed of many small units called amino acids. These amino acids encoded by genes, combine together in a sequence to form a long chain called protein. The bond between two amino acids is called a peptide bond or amide linkage. The word protein is derived from the Greek word proteios, meaning primary or 1st rank.
What are the sources of Protein?
There are many sources of protein, some of them present below.
Egg, Bean, Meat, Fish, Milk, Paneer, Mushroom, Cottage cheese, Soybean, Lentil, Peanut, Greek Yogurt, Quinoa, Nuts, Beef, Almond, Legume etc.
Amino Acids
Amino acids are the basic unit of protein. Amino acids combine with specific sequences into long chains to form proteins. These sequences are coded by genes.
There are 20 amino acids, 9 essential amino acids, and 11 non-essential amino acids.
1- Essential amino acids: There are nine amino acids that our body can not synthesize but obtain from diets that's why they are called essential amino acids. Ex: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine.
2- Non-essential amino acids: those amino acids that synthesize in our own body and are not required in our
Protein is an essential nutrient that provides amino acids for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body's tissues. It is made up of 20 amino acids, 9 of which must be obtained through food. Animal proteins like meat and dairy are considered "complete" as they contain all essential amino acids, while plant proteins like grains are "incomplete." The amount of protein needed varies from 0.4-1g per pound of body weight depending on activity level and goals like muscle building or fat loss. High protein diets have not been shown to harm health if calories are managed. Good sources of protein include meat, eggs, dairy, nuts, and legumes.
This document discusses protein and its role as a macronutrient. It defines protein and explains that it is made up of amino acids, including 9 essential amino acids that must be obtained through food. The document outlines protein requirements for different populations, noting that active individuals need more protein than sedentary people. It also discusses optimal protein intake for muscle building, fat loss, and other goals. The timing, types, and quality of protein are examined, along with common myths about the dangers of high-protein diets.
With regards to this article, I agree and disagree on certain leve.docxalanfhall8953
With regards to this article, I agree and disagree on certain levels pertaining to racism in video games. I have been playing video games since the Nintendo days and I have noticed many stereotypes in video games that Evan has pointed out. Although Evan feels that all black characters are subject to stereotypes, there are bunches of game characters that I believe are not under this category and are in fact very ambitious characters. For example, Lee Everett from the Walking Dead: Season 1 game, Captain Anderson from the Mass Effect Trilogy, Franklin from Grand Theft Auto V and Sgt. Johnson from the Halo series. The problem I have with Evan's critique is the fact that he is judging black characters based on how they act and look, something that society does to members of the visible minority in the real world. Majority of the characters that are in question may seem stereotypical at first but if you delve deeper into their character you start to realize that there is depth behind that person rather than just big muscles and a loud mouth. In my opinion, whenever I play a video game I can care less what the race of my character is and I look more towards their development as a character and the story that it is telling. Many "gamers" share this same opinion from research I have done and even in the comment section of this article. I get the notion that he is looking for a character that is "white" but the problem is whenever a black character is given the same characteristics as a white character, they are not well received and are made fun of for being "white washed". There seems to be a double standard with how black characters are portrayed and is also something that will unfortunately never be able to appease to everyone due to the fact that everyone shares a different opinion on how certain types of characters should be portrayed.

The Social Construction of "Race"
As our discussions have revealed over the past few weeks, negative or stereotypical representation in media
has real consequences. Such representations not only reflect but also reinforce the marginality of minority
groups. Thus, it follows that the political empowerment of subordinate groups in society--such as women,
youth, people with disabilities, gays and lesbians, the poor--depends in part on changing the way these
groups are represented.
How can we think about the issues of representation and empowerment in relation to racial minorities? First,
we need to gain a better understanding of the social construction of racial and ethnic identity.
Ethnicity
'Ethnicity' and 'race' are linked but distinct categories. Ethnicity is a broad social category that addresses
one’s perceived membership in a larger group based on an attachment to an actual or possible homeland, its
cultural heritage, belief system, political history, language, myths, customs, manners, food, literature, sport, art
or architectural style. Ethnic affiliations are acknowledged and pa.

The document provides an overview of the digestive system and its role in breaking down foods into smaller molecules through physical and chemical digestion. It discusses the importance of a balanced diet that provides all necessary vitamins, minerals, and energy requirements. Deficiency in certain vitamins can lead to diseases like scurvy or rickets. The document also outlines daily recommended intake of vitamins, minerals, and energy for males and females of different ages.
Protein is made up of amino acids and is important for growth, repair of body tissue, and energy. There are essential amino acids that the body cannot produce and must be obtained through food. Complete proteins contain all essential amino acids and are found in animal products, soy, and poi. Proteins have different structures and functions, such as antibodies that defend the body, contractile proteins that enable movement, and enzymes that speed up chemical reactions. High protein diets are recommended for building muscle while low protein diets may be prescribed for kidney or liver disease. Protein deficiency can cause conditions like kwashiorkor with symptoms of apathy, diarrhea, and edema.
Protein is made up of chains of amino acids and is essential for building body tissue. It can serve as a fuel source, containing 4 calories per gram like carbohydrates. Proteins are involved in most bodily functions and processes. They are broken down into amino acids during digestion and some amino acids must be obtained through diet as the body cannot produce them. Not consuming enough protein can lead to muscle wasting and conditions like kwashiorkor characterized by edema and skin issues.
The document discusses different types of nutrients including proteins, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. It describes essential nutrients that must be obtained through diet as the body cannot produce them, and defines deficiency diseases that can result from not getting enough of certain nutrients. Examples are provided of studies conducted to determine recommended daily intake levels for various vitamins.
Proteins are essential nutrients that make up about 15% of the body and are involved in many bodily functions. They are composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks that form various protein configurations to determine their roles. It is important to obtain all nine essential amino acids from diet as the body can only produce eleven of the twenty total amino acids. Good sources of complete protein include meat, dairy, eggs and their alternatives, as well as various plant-based foods like nuts, seeds, beans and grains when combined. Healthy adults should aim to consume between 50-175 grams of protein daily depending on calorie needs and lifestyle.
Proteins are essential nutrients that make up about 15% of the body and are involved in many bodily functions. They are composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks that form various proteins when arranged in different configurations. It is essential to obtain 9 amino acids through diet as the body cannot produce them. Good sources of complete protein include meat, dairy, eggs, nuts, seeds, beans and grains. Healthy adults should aim to consume between 50-175 grams of protein per day depending on calorie needs and lifestyle.
Nutrients
What is the nutrient? Nutrients are any substances that the body requires to perform work and which provide energy to do work. The most common functions of nutrients are: they provide energy, make body structure, and maintain chemical processes in the body. There are two main types of nutrients, macronutrients (proteins, carbohydrates, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). We eat nutrients not only because we are hungry but also because all the daily routine movements, like walking, dancing, talking, and even watching TV or playing games also need energy. Humans need many nutrients, some of which the body synthesizes called non-essential nutrients, and which the body cannot synthesize are called essential nutrients.
Types of nutrients: requirement basis
Nutrients can be divided into two categories on the basis of body requirements, which are macronutrients and micronutrients.
1- Macronutrients: (macro means large) Macronutrients are those nutrients that the body requires eventually in larger quantities to function well to provide energy. E.g.: carbohydrates, proteins, fats.
2- Micronutrients: (micro means small) those nutrients which the body requires a small amount to perform vital works. need in milligrams or micrograms to energize the body. E.g.: vitamins (A, B, D, E, K) and minerals (calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, chloride, magnesium, iron, zinc, iodine, chromium, copper, fluoride, molybdenum, manganese, and selenium).
Rule of major nutrients
There are seven important nutrients present in diets, but five are the most important for the body to do vital functions. These nutrients are protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. And other two nutrients are water and roughage which do not provide nutrition to the body but perform important functions.
Protein
Protein is the building block of a body. It is composed of many small units called amino acids. These amino acids encoded by genes, combine together in a sequence to form a long chain called protein. The bond between two amino acids is called a peptide bond or amide linkage. The word protein is derived from the Greek word proteios, meaning primary or 1st rank.
What are the sources of Protein?
There are many sources of protein, some of them present below.
Egg, Bean, Meat, Fish, Milk, Paneer, Mushroom, Cottage cheese, Soybean, Lentil, Peanut, Greek Yogurt, Quinoa, Nuts, Beef, Almond, Legume etc.
Amino Acids
Amino acids are the basic unit of protein. Amino acids combine with specific sequences into long chains to form proteins. These sequences are coded by genes.
There are 20 amino acids, 9 essential amino acids, and 11 non-essential amino acids.
1- Essential amino acids: There are nine amino acids that our body can not synthesize but obtain from diets that's why they are called essential amino acids. Ex: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine.
2- Non-essential amino acids: those amino acids that synthesize in our own body and are not required in our
Protein is an essential nutrient that provides amino acids for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body's tissues. It is made up of 20 amino acids, 9 of which must be obtained through food. Animal proteins like meat and dairy are considered "complete" as they contain all essential amino acids, while plant proteins like grains are "incomplete." The amount of protein needed varies from 0.4-1g per pound of body weight depending on activity level and goals like muscle building or fat loss. High protein diets have not been shown to harm health if calories are managed. Good sources of protein include meat, eggs, dairy, nuts, and legumes.
This document discusses protein and its role as a macronutrient. It defines protein and explains that it is made up of amino acids, including 9 essential amino acids that must be obtained through food. The document outlines protein requirements for different populations, noting that active individuals need more protein than sedentary people. It also discusses optimal protein intake for muscle building, fat loss, and other goals. The timing, types, and quality of protein are examined, along with common myths about the dangers of high-protein diets.
With regards to this article, I agree and disagree on certain leve.docxalanfhall8953
With regards to this article, I agree and disagree on certain levels pertaining to racism in video games. I have been playing video games since the Nintendo days and I have noticed many stereotypes in video games that Evan has pointed out. Although Evan feels that all black characters are subject to stereotypes, there are bunches of game characters that I believe are not under this category and are in fact very ambitious characters. For example, Lee Everett from the Walking Dead: Season 1 game, Captain Anderson from the Mass Effect Trilogy, Franklin from Grand Theft Auto V and Sgt. Johnson from the Halo series. The problem I have with Evan's critique is the fact that he is judging black characters based on how they act and look, something that society does to members of the visible minority in the real world. Majority of the characters that are in question may seem stereotypical at first but if you delve deeper into their character you start to realize that there is depth behind that person rather than just big muscles and a loud mouth. In my opinion, whenever I play a video game I can care less what the race of my character is and I look more towards their development as a character and the story that it is telling. Many "gamers" share this same opinion from research I have done and even in the comment section of this article. I get the notion that he is looking for a character that is "white" but the problem is whenever a black character is given the same characteristics as a white character, they are not well received and are made fun of for being "white washed". There seems to be a double standard with how black characters are portrayed and is also something that will unfortunately never be able to appease to everyone due to the fact that everyone shares a different opinion on how certain types of characters should be portrayed.

The Social Construction of "Race"
As our discussions have revealed over the past few weeks, negative or stereotypical representation in media
has real consequences. Such representations not only reflect but also reinforce the marginality of minority
groups. Thus, it follows that the political empowerment of subordinate groups in society--such as women,
youth, people with disabilities, gays and lesbians, the poor--depends in part on changing the way these
groups are represented.
How can we think about the issues of representation and empowerment in relation to racial minorities? First,
we need to gain a better understanding of the social construction of racial and ethnic identity.
Ethnicity
'Ethnicity' and 'race' are linked but distinct categories. Ethnicity is a broad social category that addresses
one’s perceived membership in a larger group based on an attachment to an actual or possible homeland, its
cultural heritage, belief system, political history, language, myths, customs, manners, food, literature, sport, art
or architectural style. Ethnic affiliations are acknowledged and pa.

Windows Server Deployment Proposal
Overview
Each student will create a detailed, organized, unified technical solution given the scenario described below. The submission will be in a written format, with at least one diagram, and may include additional diagrams, charts or tables. The assignment is meant for students to enhance their mastery of the material and to provide a creative and realistic way in which to apply knowledge from this course.
Scenario
Worldwide Advertising, Inc. (referred to as “WAI”) has hired you as an IT consultant for implementing their Windows network infrastructure. WAI is a new advertising firm, and they are currently hiring staff, establishing two locations, and have a need to get their internal IT services configured. They do not yet have an IT staff, but when they do, the IT staff will take over all aspects of IT administration. You are required to supply WAI with a solution which describes the implementation and configuration of their core IT services. Cost is not a significant concern – WAI wishes to implement the “right” solution to fit their needs now and for the next 2-3 years.
There are several details about WAI which will have an impact on your choices:
· WAI will start with 110 employees, in the following departments:
· Executives (9 employees) – manage and run the company
· Accounts and Sales Department (15 employees) – perform market research and maintain accounts
· Creative, Media and Production Department (59 employees) – advertising
· Human Resources and Finances (17 employees) – perform HR and financial duties
· IT (10 employees) – manage IT for the company
· WAI will have two sites, one in Seattle and one in New York. Most staff will be located in Seattle, with at least 1 person from each of the departments above located in NY.
· Networking equipment is already in place for both sites. A secure tunnel (using IPSec) will be established between the two sites so that inter-site traffic will be securely tunneled over the Internet. You may make whatever other assumptions you wish about intra-and inter-site connectivity.
· Security mechanisms (e.g., firewalls, intrusion detection) will be handled separately, and there is no need to describe them.
· Some departments will want their data to remain private from other departments (e.g., Finances personnel will not want Production staff to see the company’s financial details). Your team may make assumptions about how data should be shared or kept private.
· Assumptions can be made regarding any information not included here; all assumptions should be identified, however.

Willowbrook SchoolBackgroundWillowbrook School is a small, pri.docxalanfhall8953
Willowbrook School
Background
Willowbrook School is a small, private school in the Midwest United States. For the past 20 years, it has offered a curriculum for preschool through 6th grade. Five years ago it expanded to offer after-school care, usually referred to as after care, on premises. After care is not only offered to Willowbrook’s students, but also for students of other schools in the area.
As an independent systems analyst working as a team, you work as an IT consultant, specializing in developing IT solutions for small businesses. You have been contacted by the director, Victoria Owens, to discuss the possibility of setting up a computer system to handle some of the school’s administrative and financial tasks. She explains to you that Willowbrook is experiencing significant increases in enrollment applications for all programs. Increases in applications, coupled with increased demand for after-school care, have led to a very high workload for the administrative personnel and staff. The principal and teachers have stepped in where possible, but the demand is becoming too great. Willowbrook School is a non-profit, and is not in a position to hire another full-time administrative position, which is what the principal and director think would be needed to handle the increased workload. You agree to meet with Victoria and the principal, Kathy Gilliard next week to discuss the school and its need for an information system.
You sit down with Victoria and Kathy on Wednesday to ask them some questions to help you determine what type of information system they need. You explain to them that information systems bring computer hardware and software together with people, processes, and data to produce specific results. They are excited to tell you about their situation and what they have in mind for a computer system to help with some of the work load. To help you with planning for the information system, you ask them about what personnel they have, as well as some questions to determine what types of information each person needs to do their job.
Victoria explains her role as the executive director of the school. She administers the activities of the school in accordance with the mission, vision, and policies established by the Board of Directors. She supports the educational staff and oversees the financial, payroll, and human resources functions for the school. She also prepares all necessary reports and evaluations for the state and local school boards. Kathy says that as the principal of Willowbrook she handles the academic and curricular issues that arise, and ensures that the school meets all federal and state educational standards. Kathy and the teachers who report to her make decisions jointly about admissions and assignments to classrooms. The two kitchen staff personnel, a head cook and an assistant, also report to the principal. She also coordinates students’ bus transportation schedule. The school contracts with a local bussing co.

winter 2013 235 CREATE A CONTRACTInstructionsI will giv.docxalanfhall8953
winter 2013 235
CREATE A CONTRACT
Instructions:
I will give you a fact scenario below that involves some college students who are having difficulty living together as roommates.
Your task will be to create a contract to solve the problems and issues that the fact pattern raises. Hint I had (sixteen) 16 issues when I did the assignment.
After you create the contract, you will then include around a two page written description about WHY you chose to design the provisions of the contract the way you did.
Your grade will be based on:
1. Whether your contract identifies and solves the problems
2. Whether your contract is realistic
a. (ie a clause that says no roommate shall ever enter the room of another roommate is not practical because what if you hear them yelling for help, or if you haven’t seen them in 14 days.) I want you to think about “loopholes” and the “what if” types of things that can go wrong.
3. Language… Really in this assignment PLEASE pay attention to the words you type because one missing word can make the contract really silly… In last year’s contracts I had someone write… A roommate can eat any food in the apartment that has their name on it… (Great give me a pen and I’ll just put my name on everything).
4. Your explanation, did you have sound reasoning for putting in something in the contract.
5. Following the LAW:… This assignment requires you to have a general understanding of what a contract is and how it works… That is, after all, what we have been studying.
a. Do not include items in your contract that are illegal or are not a contract… For example do not say if the roommate leaves the toilet seat up, they will place their hands on the toilet and have their fingers slammed 10 times by the toilet seat. (That’s not enforceable)
b. Do NOT include something like… If roommate “brion” doesn’t like the punishment he can change it to what he wants, or if I don’t want to follow this rule I don’t have to”… (It is not a contract if one person can CHOOSE to not follow something, It also not a contract when you leave punishments, requirements ect for the “future to be determined”
6. Creativity/problem solving/format of contract
a. You must follow the general format of a contract I have included after the fact scenario… Trust me I am including the sections that ALL your contracts must have for your benefit. It will make organizing it a lot easier for you.
b. You must CHOOSE to write your contract from the viewpoint of one of the four people below or as a disinterested outside party… This is critical because if you are writing the contract from the perspective of one of the people it should FAVOR that person (in a reasonable way), if you are writing as a disinterested third party (an attorney) you should try and be as fair to all as possible.
c. In your explanation tell me from what viewpoint…actually make that your first sentence.

Workplace Bullying: Costly and
Preventable
By Terry L Wiedmer
W orkplace bullying is a pervasive practice by malicious individuals who seekpower, control,domination, and subjugation. In businesses or schools, such bullying is an inefficient
way of working that is both costly and preventable. Senior management and executives are
ultimately responsible for creating and sustaining bully-free workplaces. Workplace bullies can be
stopped if employees and employers work together to establish and enforce appropriate workplace
policies and practices. This article presents information about workplace bullying, including its
prevalence, targeted individuals, bullying behaviors, employer practices, and steps to prevent
bullying. In the end, leadership and an environment of respect provide the ultimate formula for
stopping workplace bullying.
Bullying occurs between and among people in all venues—in the home, community, and
workplace. It is a pervasive, targeted, and planned effort that can be overtly obvious or
can fly under the radar and is conducted by practiced and malicious individuals who seek
power, control, domination, and subjugation. The impacts of such actions—in terms of
finances, emotions, health, morale, and overall productivity—are destructive, and the
ramifications are limitless (Mattice, 2009). Because no one is immune from the potential of
being subjected to bullying in the workplace, this topic merits further review and analysis
(Van Dusen, 2008). :
To combat workplace bullying, often referred to as psychological harassment or
violence (Workplace Bullying Institute [WBI], 2007), employers must have a full range of
policies in place and means available to them to create and maintain a healthy workplace
culture and climate. Although they are not generally for-profit endeavors, schools and
school systems are purposeful businesses that share the same concerns and have the same
responsibility to ensure that each employee works in a respectful environment and is not
subjected to workplace bullies.
Workplace Bullying •
According to the Workforce Bullying Institute (WBI), workplace bullying is
the repeated, health-harming mistreatment of one or more persons (the targets)
by one or more perpetrators that takes one or more of the following forms: verbal
abuse; offensive conduct/behaviors (including nonverbal) which are threatening,
humiliating, or intimidating; and work interference—sabotage—which prevents
work from getting done. (Definition of Workplace Bullying, para. 1)
Bullies seek to induce harm, jeopardize one's career and job, and destroy interpersonal
relationships. The behaviors of bullies harm people and ravage profits.

Prevalence of Workplace Bullying
Thirty-seven percent of U.S. workforce members report being bullied at work; this amounts
to an estimated 54 million Americans, which translates to nearly the entire population of
the states of Wash.
With the competitive advantage that Crocs’ supply chain holds, the.docxalanfhall8953
With the competitive advantage that Crocs’ supply chain holds, the company also wants to be able to sustain their customers’ satisfaction. In doing this, they must make sure that their transformation process is producing consistent output especially when new products are introduced. This can be achieved by having a solid quality control system.
With the quality control system, inspections are to take place at three critical points. The first one is before production, which involves the raw materials in Crocs’ case that would be the raw materials, or chemicals that they purchase in pellet form. This first step can be eliminated by through supplier certification. The second critical point is during the production process. Process quality control takes place, which involves statistical process control. Periodic samples are taken from a continuous production, as long as sample measurements fall within the control limit the production will continue. However, if the samples fall outside the control limits, the process is stopped and a search is made for an assignable cause. In this case, the process will use a quality control chart known as an attribute control chart. The whole purpose is to find the natural random variability in the output oppose to unnecessary variations. The company must maintain that natural random variability to be under statistical control. The last critical point is after production. Following these inspections is process capability. Process capability is assessed once the process is under statistical control. It is the ability of the process to meet or exceed customers’ specifications. Process capability is determined by using the process capability index. If the process is unable to meet the customer specifications the following step is continuous improvement in which case seven tools are used including a flow chart, check sheet, histogram, Pareto chart, cause and effect, scatter diagram and a control chart. These tools are then incorporated into an improvement approach known as Six Sigma. Six Sigma includes five steps:
1. Defining a process for improvement
2. Measuring the variables and setting goals for improvement
3. Analyzing the root causes in which case the seven tools are referred to
4. Making improvements
5. Implementing a control plan to ensure that changes are permanent
In furthering research on Crocs, it has been stated in online reviews by various customers that they have experienced defects in the seam of their shoes, cases in which their shoe had shrunk or didn’t fit at all, Crocs’ flip flops tearing apart, holes appearing in their shoes, and the smell of the shoes. These reviews are accessible to many consumers, and are capable of tainting the reputation of Crocs. Reviews such as these are important to pay attention to because it’s proof of the importance of solidifying an efficient quality control system. It is especially important when introducing new products, and the use of different materials. .
Wind power resources on the eastern U.S. continental shelf are est.docxalanfhall8953
Wind power resources on the eastern U.S. continental shelf are estimated to be over 400 GW, several times the electricity used by U.S. eastern coastal states. The first U.S. developer proposes to build 130 large (40 story tall) wind turbines in Nan- tucket Sound, just outside Massachusetts state waters. These would provide 420 MW at market prices, enough electricity for most of Cape Cod. The project is opposed by a vigorous and well-financed coalition. Polling shows local public opinion on the project almost equally divided. This article draws on semistructured interviews with residents of Cape Cod to analyze values, beliefs, and logic of supporters and oppo- nents. For example, one value found to lead to opposition is that the ocean is a special place that should be kept natural and free of human intrusion. One line of argument found to lead to support is: The war in Iraq is problematic, this war is “really” over petroleum, Cape Cod generates electricity from oil, therefore, the wind project would improve U.S. security. Based on analysis of the values and reasoning behind our interview data, we identify four issues that are relevant but not currently part of the debate.
Introduction
Recent assessments of renewable energy show that wind power has, since the turn of the century, become cost-competitive in the sites with the most favorable wind regimes (Herzog et al., 2001). Until very recently, large-scale North American wind resources were believed to exist in the Great Plains of the United States, northern Canada, and central Canada only (Grubb & Meyer, 1993). Although these huge resources are enough to meet the entire continent’s electrical needs, they are distant from the large coastal cities where electricity is primarily consumed—imposing a need for costly large-scale transmission lines (Cavallo, 1995). In just the last couple of years, it has been recog- nized that the Atlantic Ocean also has a large wind resource on the continental shelf, close to East Coast cities. Three or four manufacturers have developed large wind elec- tric turbines designed to be placed offshore, in waters up to 20–30 m in depth. To date these have been placed only in European waters. By late 2003, the resources, the tech- nology, and the economic viability had all come together in the Eastern United States, potentially allowing large-scale deployment to begin by 2005.
The furthest advanced of a handful of proposed U.S. offshore wind developments is in Nantucket Sound, off the Southern coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. This proposal has engendered a widespread, well-organized, well-financed, and politically potent op- position. This movement’s strength, and the apparent contradiction of such opposition coming from a population thought of as politically liberal and environmentally con- cerned, have garnered national press coverage (e.g., Burkett, 2003). A second project was proposed by the Long Island Power Authority for the southern edge of Long Island, with an .

Technology Diffusion, S-Curve, and Innovation-Decision Process
In this week's reflection report I will discuss technology diffusion, S-Curves and innovation
decision process. I will use the healthcare industry as an example. Our healthcare system is ever
evolving - new technologies, insurance models, and information systems are shaping the system
on a daily basis. Despites these changes and the huge healthcare expenditures (16 of GDP in
America compared to 8 in United Kingdom), Americans are comparatively not any healthier
than citizens in most other developed nations (Merson, Black, & Mills, 2012). The disconnect
between investments in technology and health outcomes is a concern of us all. It makes as
question technology diffusion within the healthcare system: are investments in health system
being spent efficiently? Are consumers really resistant to changes that benefit their health? Or
are there issues with technology diffusion as a practice.
Diffusion is the process by which an innovation is spread through a population. Ironically,
people and institutions, generally, do not like change. Change is viewed as painful, difficult and
times creating uncertainties. Because of this, and for the healthcare industry, huge amounts of
resources are devoted either to promoting innovations (for example, selling the latest drug,
imaging system, medical device etc.) or to preventing innovations from disrupting the status quo.
Although many successful healthcare innovations are aimed at making people healthier, at
relatively smaller increases in costs, IT usage in healthcare has always lagged other industries -
ERH are a good example. Adoption of ERH was slow. Literature on technology diffusion states
that successful implementation is influenced by the compatibility and complexity of the
innovation, organizational context, and the characteristics of the implementation strategy (Cain
M, & Mittman, 2002; Rogers, 1995). People respond to these factors differently resulting in an
S-shaped curve illustration of the adoption process.
The S-curve model shows that any innovation is first adopted by a few people/organizations and
as more use it, and confidence is built around the technology, other will begin to use it. Because
of the inherent uncertainty to new innovations, the decision to adopt an innovation takes time.
However, "once the diffusion reaches a level of critical mass, it proceeds rapidly. Eventually a
point is reached where the population is less likely to adopt the innovation, and spread slows
down. The S-curve implies a hierarchy of adopters, starting with innovators, early adopters, early
majority, late majority and laggards (Rogers, 1995). In other words the S-curve explains the
innovation-decision process: the process through which an individual/organization passes
through from when they gain knowledge of an innovation, to forming an attitude, to the decision
to accept or reject the innovation, .

It includes a Visual Basic GUI to allow users to observe the simulation. The goal of WinARM is to facilitate learning computer architecture through hands-on simulation of an ARM processor, without requiring actual hardware. Future work may include simulating additional ARM instruction types and incorporating instruction pipelining.
William PennWhat religion was William PennWilliam Pen was fr.docxalanfhall8953
William Penn
What religion was William Penn?
William Pen was from an Anglican family that was very distinguished. His father was Sir William Pen who was a landowner. At twenty two, Penn decided to join the Quakers which was also referred to as the Religious Society of Friends. The Quakers used to obey the inner light and they believed that the inner light came directly from God. They refused to take their hats off or even bow for any man. They also refused to take their arms up. Their beliefs were completely different as compared to the beliefs that the other Christians had (Barbour & Frost, 1988).
The Oxford University in England expelled Penn in the year 1662 since he refused to conform to the teachings of the Anglican Church. He could publicly state his beliefs and he could also print some of the things that he believed in.
Quakers’ founder was George Foxx who was a close friend to Penn. Cromwell’s death was a time of turmoil to the Quakers since they were suspected for the death. They were suspected because they had beliefs that differed from the religion that had been imposed for the state. They had also refused to swear a loyalty oath to Cromwell, who was the king. Quakers did not swear since Christ had commanded people not to swear.
The religious views that Penn had were a distress to his father. Naval service had helped him earn an Ireland estate and he had always hoped that the intelligence and charisma that his son had could help him in winning favor at the Charles II court. However, that could not happen since his son was always arrested. Penn and George Foxx were frequent companions since they could always travel together in order to spread their ministry. He also wrote a comprehension that was detailed and comprehensive regarding Quakerism. After the death of his father in 1670, Penn inherited the estates of the family and he could frequently visit the court of King Charles II where he was always campaigning for freedom in religion (Penn, 1794).
Where was William Penn born?
William Penn was born in London, United Kingdom. He was born on fourteenth of October in the year 1644. He was a privileged son since he was born by a gentleman who was a land owner. Thomas Loe, who was a Quaker minister, greatly affected Penn by his teachings.
In 1677 a group of important men all from Penn’s religion received a land area in the Colonies for them to settle. Penn himself remained in England but wrote a government for this new community. In what part of the US was this land area located?
In the year 1677, the Quakers relocated to another land. The city of Burlington is located in the Burlington County in New Jersey. It is Philadelphia’s suburb. The Quakers settlers moved to Burlington. Burlington served as West Jersey’s capital until the year 1702. The Quakers were able to formally establish their congregation in the year 1678. Initially, they could meet in private homes. However, between 1683 and 1687, a hexagonal house that was made .

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Chapter 6: The Proteins and Amino Acids
Protein
· Of prime importance
· Working proteins -- enzymes, antibodies, transport vehicles,
hormones
· Structural proteins -- muscle tendons (muscle to bone),
ligaments (bone to bone), hair, material of nails
Structure of Proteins
· Contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen AND nitrogen
· The nitrogen atoms give the name amino (nitrogen containing)
to amino acids
· Amino acids are the building blocks of protein
· The amino acids in a strand of protein are different from on
another – can contain 20 different kinds of amino acids
Amino Acids
21. · All amino acids have a chemical backbone consisting of single
carbon atoms with both an amine group (the amine group) and
an acid group (carboxyl group)
· The differences in amino acids depends on the chemical side
chain that is attached to the center carbon of the backbone
· It is the side chain that gives identity and chemical nature to
each amino acid
· The side chains makes the amino acids differ in size, shape,
and electrical charge
· There are 20 amino acids; the body can make most of them
from fragments of carbohydrate or fat to make the backbone,
and nitrogen from other sources to make the amine group
Essential Amino Acids
· The body cannot make these amino acids
· Without them, the body cannot make the proteins it needs to
do its work
· Therefore, we must eat the foods that provide these essential
amino acids
· Phenylalanine, an essential amino acids
· Phenylalanine ( tyrosine (a non-essential amino acid)
· If the enzyme needed to convert phenylalanine to tyrosine is
absent – condition called PKU
· Phenylalanine builds up in the blood and this results in a
decrease in IQ in infants
22. Building Protein
· Amino acids are connected by a peptide bond – formed
between the amine group and the acid group of the next amino
acid
· Proteins take on different shapes depending on their charges
· If side chain electrically charged – proteins are attracted to
water
· If side chain are neutral – repelled by water; tuck themselves
away from body fluids
· Several strands of protein may cluster together in a
functioning unit
· Some proteins need a vitamin or mineral to activate it
· The different shapes of protein allow them to perform
different tasks in the body
· Enzymes – act on other substances to change them chemically;
they are proteins
· Hemoglobin – a globular protein that carries oxygen in the red
blood cells
· No restriction on length of amino aids – they can make up
thousands of different proteins
· The amino acids that make up a protein molecule are
specified by hereditary; for each protein there is a proper amino
acid sequence; if a wrong amino acid is inherited, the result
could be disastrous to health e.g. sickle cell disease
Denaturation of Protein
23. · Proteins shape can be changed by heat, acids, bases, and
alcohol
· Denaturation = change in shape
· Denaturation of protein is the first step in its destruction
· During digestion of protein, the stomach acid opens up the
proteins structure
· Once the structure is open, digestion can break the peptide
bonds
The Digestion of Protein
Stomach
· Where protein digestion begins
· Acids (HCl) in the stomach uncoils (denatures) protein into
strands
· Stomach enzymes (pepsin) then begin to break the chemical
(peptide) bonds into amino acids
· Protein ----------------polypeptides
--------------tripeptides
--------------dipeptides
--------------single amino acids
--------------few whole proteins
24. Small Intestine
· Acid from the stomach is neutralized by alkaline juice
(bicarbonate) secreted by the pancreas
· Protein digesting enzymes from the pancreas (trypsin,
chymotrypsin, and carboxypeptidase) and intestines (peptidase)
continue to break peptide bonds between tripeptides and
dipeptides
· Intestinal cells absorb amino acids and transfer amino acids
into the bloodstream
· Bloodstream transports amino acids to all the body’s cells
· Protein synthesis occurs in the cells – DNA, mRNA, tRNA –
gene expression
The Roles of Protein in the Body
1. Regulation of gene expression
2. Providing structure and movement
3. Building enzymes, hormones and other compounds
4. Building antibodies
5. Transporting substances
6. Maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance
7. Maintaining acid-base balance
8. Blood clotting
9. Provide energy and glucose
Protein energy
25. · Will be used for energy if it has to
· 1 gram of protein yields 4 kcal
· When used for energy it loses its amine
· Amine group either used elsewhere or turned into urea by the
liver (deamination)
· Urea sent to the kidney for excretion in the form of urine
· Fragments that remain – C, H, O2 – can be used to build CHO
and fats
· Amino acids can be converted to glucose
· Amino acids can be converted to fat, and fats will be stored
· So, if need be, protein can help maintain a steady blood
glucose and also serve the glucose needs for the brain
For EnergyIn Storage
Carbohydrates offer energy
Glucose is stored as glycogen
Fats offer concentrated energy
Fat is stored as triglycerides
Proteins offer energy plus nitrogen
Protein is not stored – available ONLY as active working
molecular and structural components of tissue
Summary
Amino acids in a cell can be
· Used to build proteins
26. · Converted to other small nitrogen-containing compounds such
as vitamins or niacin
· Converted to other amino acids
Stripped of their nitrogen, amino acids can be
· Converted to glucose
· Burned as fuel
· Stored as fat
CONSUMER CORNER: Evaluating Protein and Amino Acid
Supplements
How much protein do we need? Table 6-3
DRI
Adults – 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight
The more athletic adult – 1.0-1.2 grams/kg of body weight
Women – 46 grams per day
Men – 56 grams per day
AMDR 10-35% of kcal from protein
USDA Food Guide Pyramid (MyPyramid)
Other factors to consider:
· The Body’s Health
· Malnutrition and infection increase the body’s need for protein
· Other Nutrients and Energy
27. · Need a full array of macronutrients and micronutrients
· Protein Quality
· Part of a normal fixed diet
Nitrogen balance
· We need enough protein to maintain nitrogen balance – the
amount of nitrogen consumed being equal to the amount of
nitrogen excreted
· Adults need to maintain equilibrium
· Infants, children, pregnant and lactating women, body
builders, are in positive nitrogen balance – retaining more
nitrogen than they are excreting
· Surgery, space travel, starvation, results in negative nitrogen
balance – muscle tissue being broken down and lost
What Foods Provide High QualityProtein?
· Depends on its amino acid content
· High –quality protein (formerly “complete protein”) – proteins
that provide all of the essential amino acids
· Animal proteins, eggs
· Milk , yogurt, cheese
· Most soybean products
· If the diet fails to provide enough of the essential amino acids
· Internal proteins are broken down to liberate the needed
essential amino acid
· Conserve the essential amino acid by limiting the synthesis of
28. protein
· Limiting Amino Acid
· An essential amino acid that is present in dietary protein in an
insufficient amount, thereby limiting the body’s ability to build
protein
· Complementary Protein: eating two different foods where
essential amino acids are lacking (or low) in one are provided in
the other and vice versa
· Two proteins do not need to be eaten together as long as the
diet provides enough energy and total protein from a variety of
sources
· Mutual supplementation
· Legumes – foods of the pea, bean and lentil family that are
nitrogen-fixing; their seeds are rich in protein
· Protein Digestibility
· Some proteins are more digestible than others
· Oats vs. eggs
· Perspective on protein quality
· Meeting protein needs not a problem for most people in the US
even if they were to eat no animal products at all
· Need to pay attention to mutual supplementation
· Varied, adequate in calories, nutrient dense
· What about where food energy is limited (where malnutrition
exists) or protein limited
· Fufu – low-protein staple food of the cassava root
29. Protein Deficiency and Excess
What happens when people consume too little protein
· Deficiency in protein and energy can result in protein-energy
malnutrition (PEM), the most widespread form of malnutrition
in the world
· Marasmus
· 6-18 months of age
· Children fed weak cereal drink, low calorie, low protein
quality
· Child looks like a wizened old person
· Muscle wasting
· Little body fat for insulation
· Insufficient protein for hemoglobin, antibodies
· Dysentery – infection of the digestive tract – diarrhea
· Might progress to a point of no return
· Kwashiorkor – Ghanian name for “the evil spirit that infects
the first child when the second child is born”
· Breastmilk – high quality protein
· When baby is weaned, low quality protein follows
· Some symptoms resemble marasmus minus the severe wasting
· Edema in belly and legs
· Fatty liver – lack of transport proteins
· Liver needs to filter toxins
30. · PEM at home
Is it possible to consume too much protein?
· Overconsumption of protein offers no benefits and may pose
some risks
· US protein intakes – most consume sufficient amounts of
protein; high-protein diets suggesting 65% of calories for
weight loss not warranted
· Heart Disease
· Saturated fat from animal protein and milk, yogurt , cheese
(full fat varieties)
· Homocysteine and heart disease; high protein might raise the
level of this amino acid and increase the risk of heart disease
· Kidney disease- protein diets
· Adult bone loss - osteoporosis
· Cancer
· Colon and rectum from well-cooked red meats and highly
processed meats
· Is a Low-Gluten Diet Best for Health?
· Gluten and celiac disease
Food Feature: Getting Enough but Not Too Much Protein
· Legumes
· Textured vegetable protein
· Tofu – curd made from soybeans
31. Controversy 6: Vegetarian and Meat Consuming Diets
Vegetarians -- Table C6-1
· People who consciously choose not to eat animal some or all
products
· Fruitarian
· Lacto-ovo vegetarians
· Lacto-vegetarians
· Ovo-vegetarian
· Vegan
· Partial vegetarians
· Pesco-vegetarian
Positive health effects – reduced risk of
· Obesity, heart disease, blood pressure, cancer, diabetes,
osteoporosis, diverticular disease
Positive aspects of a meat eater’s diet
· Energy, B12, vitamin D, calcium, iron, zinc, , omega 3, and
