Deindustrialization: Causes and Implications
Open full report
Increased globalization (the international integration of markets for goods, factors, and technology) has coincided in the past two decades with a shift in labor demand away from less-skilled workers toward those with more skills. This shift in labor demand has widened the gap in wages between the two groups of workers and has raised income inequality and unemployment, primarily among low-skilled workers. This paper summarizes research on the connection between globalization and labor markets in the advanced economies. Much of the concern about the effects of globalization has focused on the impact of imports from developing countries on wages, employment, and income inequality. However, the consensus of empirical research suggests that increased trade accounts for only about 10 to 20 percent of the changes in wages and income distribution in the advanced economies. The more important influence on labor markets in the 1980s and 1990s has been a technology-driven shift in labor demand away from less-skilled workers and toward more-skilled workers. This shift has resulted in increased wage inequality in some countries, and in lower relative employment among unskilled workers in others.

Increased capital mobility, including the outsourcing of production to low-wage countries, as well as immigration from developing countries to the advanced economies, appears to have had only modest effects on labor markets in the advanced economies. Nonetheless, further globalization can increase the sensitivity of wages and employment to external shocks and thereby contribute to greater job insecurity. Policymakers must keep in mind potential social dislocations from these changes and ensure that those who are displaced do not become marginalized. It is important, however, that any policy actions do not impede adjustment, but rather provide incentives for workers and firms to adjust to and therefore gain from changes in the global economic environment

Hunting for Ivory
Facebook
Content: About 50% of Asian females have short tusks known as tushes – which have no pulp inside. What is a tusk? Usually in mammals tusks are enlarged canine teeth, but in elephants they are actually elongated incisors and are essentially no different from other teeth. One third of the tusk is actually hidden from view, embedded deep in the elephant’s head. This part of the tusk is a pulp cavity made up of tissue, blood and nerves. The visible, ivory part of the tusk is made of dentine with an outer layer of enamel. Elephant ivory is unique which when viewed in cross-sections reveals criss-cross lines that form a series of diamond shapes. Elephants tusks never stop growing so some old bulls display enormous examples. However, the average size of tusks has decreased over the past hundred years because hunting elephants for their ivory has resulted in the ‘big tusk gene’ becoming increasingly rare.

Content: Luckily, electrical circuity theory is a part of most high school Physics courses. This makes taking at least one physics course during high school an excellent idea for potential electricians. they’ll still have to learn it again during their apprenticeship but they will be better prepared than their fellow students when the time comes. English Courses
Even though the majority of an electricians tasks are done in the field, they will still be required to write reports from time to time. they will also need to write essays and papers during their education. Taking an English or Communications course to help fine tune their academic and business writing is a good way to prepare for their career. In a communications course they will learn how to write and respond to emails, write reports, and communicate with professionals in a business setting. This is especially important if they one day wish to start their own electrician company. Practical Courses
If their school offers Electronics courses or training it’s a good idea to take them in order to become familiar with working with circuits and other electrical devices. They will also likely learn some basic electrical circuity theory.

What are the Seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church? According to the Baltimore Catechism, a sacrament is “an outward sign, instituted by Christ, to give grace.” They are ceremonies or special occasions that help one experience God’s saving presence. They are recognized by the Roman Catholic, Eastern Catholic, and the Eastern Orthodox Churches. The seven sacraments that are regarded as instruments of God’s grace are as follows: Baptism
Baptism is the first sacrament of the Catholic Church. It is a purifying sacrament of re-birth that marks one’s entry in the Christian community. It cleanses one of sin and joins one with Christ. “Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

Content: Marriage
The Sacrament of Marriage unites a Christian man in woman in holy matrimony that cannot be dissolved by human power. It is seen as a sign of the love that comes from God and that God has for His creation. “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ [a] 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’ [b]? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” ~ Matthew 19:4-6
Holy Orders
Through the Sacrament of Holy Orders or Ordination, priests, bishops, or ministers of the Church are ordained. Thus, they receive the sacred power or grace to perform their sacred duties and to act in persona Christi. “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” ~ Matthew 28:19-20
Anointing of the Sick
Anointing of the Sick was previously known as Extreme Unction or Last Rites.

Responsible recycling
When we drop off our old computers at an e-waste collection event, or have a recycler come and get them from our offices, we want to believe that the recycler is going to do the right thing: to reuse them if possible, and handle them in ways that are safe for workers and the environment. Electronics contain many toxic chemicals, and so a responsible recycler is one that is making sure that he – and the other vendors he may sell parts or materials to – is managing all aspects of the business as safely as possible. Global e-Waste Dumping
The problem is that many electronics recyclers don’t actually recycle the electronics they collect from us. They can make more money by selling old electronic products to exporting waste traders than by processing it here in the U.S. Traders send it to developing countries where workers earn extremely low wages (often a few dollars per day) and where health and safety and environmental laws, enforcement, infrastructure and citizens’ rights are very weak. Simply stated, we are solving our e-waste problem by exporting it to poor countries around the globe. Primitive Processing Contaminates Workers, Residents
Former farmers cooking circuit boards. “ We can make 10 times more money doing this than we can from farming because the local government taxes farmers to much.

Burning the plastic casings, creating dioxins and furans – some of the most poisonous fumes you can breathe. Throwing the unwanted (but very hazardous) leaded glass into former irrigation ditches
Dumping pure acids and dissolved heavy metals directly into their rivers.

Which halogenated compounds are used in electronics?
Chlorine based compounds
Halogenated compounds’ hazards
Similarities to Dioxin
Halogenated chemicals are problematic at many phases of the lifecycle
Halogenated dioxins and furans
Content: Compounds that contain bromine and chlorine also tend to be particularly likely to bioaccumulate, be persistent and/or toxic [i] —or to degrade in the environment into new halogenated organic molecules with these troubling characteristics. As they accumulate over time, they can become widespread pollutants in air, water, soil, and sediment, where they are increasingly ingested by humans and animals. Moreover, as the climate changes over the next century, scientists believe that warming temperatures will increase the toxicity of many persistent organic pollutants in the environment [ii]. Similarities to Dioxin
Of particular concern is the ability of halogenated organics to act as pre-cursors for generating dioxin, a known human carcinogen [iii] that is toxic in very low amounts. Linda Birnbaum, director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and a leading science expert on BFRs and dioxins, led the U.S. EPA’s 1994 dioxin assessment process, which concluded that there was no safe level of dioxin exposure for humans [iv]. Exposing halogenated organics such as the BFRs, CFRs, and PVC in electronics to high heat by incineration or the burning practices commonly used in informal recycling in the developing world have been demonstrated to generate dioxins. [ v] Airborne dioxins travel the globe, and once they land, the dioxins can enter both terrestrial and aquatic food chains. The plastic casings from e-waste that unscrupulous recyclers sent to China is likely to be burned, generating dioxin, that is later carried by the wind currents back to the U.S.
Halogenated chemicals are problematic at many phases of the lifecycle
Scientists believe that substantial quantities of the halogenated compounds used in electronics products can be released into the environment at every stage of their lifecycles. This includes chemical manufacture, incorporation into products, and use of the products, as well as when they are disposed of or recycled [vi]. Organo-halogens can also produce toxic byproducts throughout their lifecycles, particularly when they are initially synthesized by chemical manufacturers.

Halogenated chemicals are problematic at many phases of the lifecycle
Halogenated dioxins and furans
Content: Additionally, if the electronics are not recycled properly at the end of their useful lives, they can generate toxic dioxins in the environment. Currently, somewhere between 50-80% of the electronic waste (e-waste) that is collected by recyclers in the U.S. ends up in developing countries, including China, India, Pakistan, Vietnam and the Philippines, according to the United Nations Environment Programme [xi] and the Basel Action Network [xii]. Once there, the high-value metals are removed to be reclaimed, but most of the halogen-containing plastics are burned. This creates major problems in places where such informal recycling takes place. In 2007, the highest levels of chlorinated dioxins and furans ever reported in the atmosphere were found in the air over Guiyu, China, an area infamous for its electronics recycling activities [xiii] . In Guiyu, the World Health Organization estimates that the daily intake of dioxins and furans by breast-fed infants exceeds guidelines by 11 to 25 times [xiv]. But is also a worldwide concern due to POPs’ ability to travel throughout the globe. In many cases polluted air travels towards the poles, but it is sometimes carried on the trade winds from Asia to North America [xv]. Air can travel from China to California in about a week. Halogenated dioxins and furans
New research indicates that when significant quantities of bromine and chlorine are present in materials being combusted under certain conditions, such as via the informal practices used in Guiyu, China, and elsewhere in the developing world, they result in mixed halogenated dioxins and furans [xvi].

I am Latina. I am Xicana. I am Mexican. And I should be able to identify as all three, not just one. This question of identity and vocabulary is something the Latino community has been grappling with; identity is fluid, but society and language commonly restrict or erase it by narrowing our options down to a checkbox. The term "Latinx" was designed to include those whose gender identity is fluid or nonbinary. The term emerged around 2004, but conversations revolving around the term have been popping up even more in recent years with the growth of sites and social media platforms designed by Latinxs for Latinxs, such as MiTú and BeVisible. These outlets help me feel like it's more than okay to be who I am. They are safe havens where Latinxs can unify and fight against injustice, which can be violent and sometimes, tragically, lethal.

Lighter-skinned Latinos get treated differently than dark-skinned Latinos, by non-Latinos and Latinos ourselves. We've seen this colorism affect Afro-Latinos the most. What are your views on colorism within the Latinx community?
How do we as Latin Americans continue to unify?
Content: We spoke to four prominent voices in the discussion of all things Latinx— Alex Alvarez (editor at MíTu, 31), Andrea Guendelman (co-founder of BeVisible and advisor at NCWID Latina Initiative, 44), Bianca Laureano (founder of The LatiNegrxs Project, board member at The Black Girl Project/activist/sexologist, 38), and Juan Paul Brammer (writer/activist, 25)—to face all of the above head on. What does Latinx mean to you? Alex Alvarez: I define Latinx, broadly, as anyone with a familial, cultural connection to Latin America. It's an imperfect term for sure, but has value; it holds the possibility of uniting a very large, diverse group of people for social and political gain, and can help establish connection and camaraderie among this group. I define Latinx, broadly, as anyone with a familial, cultural connection to Latin America. I use "Latinx" to describe all of us as a group because it feels like the most inclusive option we currently have, and reflects how language and identity can shift and transform. For myself, since I identify as female, I'm comfortable using "Latina" in a broad sense and "Cuban" when I'm honing in more closely on my specific experience. Juan Paul Brammer:

Juan Paul Brammer: I think of it as a coalition of different groups. We use the word "Latinx" to describe a community that includes queer people and people of color. But the concept of what we think is a Latina or Latino is nebulous and based on where we come from, where our parents are from, what our culture is: It's not always the same thing. We all have a different mixture of what makes us Latinx.

We all have a different mixture of what makes us Latinx. It's very open to interpretation, as is the Latinx identity. Ultimately, we come under this umbrella of a community that I feel is really interested in justice. The term wouldn't exist if it weren't for an invested interest in justice. It was born out of the idea of dismantling patriarchy. It was born out of the idea that we are going to start tackling gender roles and tackling oppressive structure.

Bianca Laureano: People, especially women, non-conforming people, and trans people, felt the term "Latin@" was excluding them. [ The] Romance languages are rooted in gender narrative, so using the "x" includes queers in the language. It's about inclusivity. It's about broadening the language, and reminds us that language has limitations, usually rooted in isolating the most vulnerable people in our communities.

Content: We are inclusive. I think the Latino community is fragmented, and we are trying to unite them. Latinx is used to unify. What conversations are being had among the Latinx community? AA: I think the rise and prominence of the Black Lives Matter movement has fostered a lot of debate and discussion among us about colorism, racism, and anti-blackness in our community, as well as the erasure of black Latinx. Additionally, with the election coming around the corner, there's a lot of discussion about how we are viewed by candidates and their parties, who often characterize us as belonging to one fairly narrow group while ignoring that young Latinx voters care deeply about issues like education and the environment. We feel like we don't belong here. We don't feel entitled to speak, because we don't feel like we're a part of this country. AG:

There are a lot of Latinos that are dark-skinned, and they're afraid of police brutality. They try to stay away from police, and not make any noise, but this injustice is bringing forth fear. Some Latinos are taught obedience in such a way that they don't feel like they belong in the U.S. and are afraid; it's rooted from teachings of the Catholic church, which maintains control and avoids social unrest.

Imagine how much more of an impact we could have made after Trump's "Mexicans as drug-smuggling rapists" comment if we had greater organization among ourselves—if we'd not only denounced these comments as unacceptable, but also shown it through widespread protests and boycotts. The shooting at Pulse placed the Latinx community at the center of current affairs conversations. How did you feel about the shooting?

We're too used to seeing news reports about shootings at this point, but this particular attack felt like it wasn't "a news story." It wasn't separated from me by a screen.

Content: These were people whose names and voices and faces reminded me of my friends and my family members, people I love and value and know. It hit close. JPB: It was interesting because when I was trying to explain to my mother, or other people what had happened, it felt like something wasn't connecting. It's hard because if you aren't standing in the trauma of an event like that, if you can't picture yourself being in a gay bar that night, it doesn't resonate the same way. If we aren't able to picture ourselves in such events, we're less likely to understand the psychic trauma that's occurring to people who can. How do we strengthen solidarity between black people and Latinxs? AA: Listening, for one. Taking a step back and just listening, getting to know other people's thoughts, where they're coming from, what they're trying to convey and express and fight for.

Taking a step back and just listening, getting to know other people's thoughts, where they're coming from, what they're trying to convey and express and fight for. I think there's also a lot of hurt within the Latinx community, because we don't often see our own stories reflected in the news. So there's a tendency to ask, angrily and with pain, why stories like police shootings of Latinx go unreported. There's a tendency to compare. And I understand that pain, but it sets up a false dichotomy, and it places the onus on forces outside of us. We have yet to harness social media to create a truly widespread, organized group of people with a clear mission statement—which the voices behind Black Lives Matter have done very successfully—possibly because we're such a broad group that it's hard to coalesce around a common goal.

Rifts between two communities that are experiencing police brutality and abuse by law enforcement are deeply rooted and are being held on to, instead of us realizing that if we collaborate then we can have more bodies protesting and speaking out against injustice.

How do you put video files into PowerPoint? Can you show video in a PowerPoint presentation? The answer is yes! In fact, it’s very easy. Video files come in several formats. The formats that work well in PowerPoint are: AVI
WMV
MPG (or MPEG)
Before you start, you must put the video file in the same folder as the PowerPoint presentation. The reason for this is that if you ever move your presentation to another computer, you video probably won’t play.

Content: Videos are linked, not embedded. If you move your presentation, or send it to someone, you must include the video file. The Package for CD feature can do this for you. Choose File> Package for CD and use the Copy to Folder button. ( In PowerPoint 2007, choose Office button> Publish> Package for CD.) When created, videos are compressed using compression/decompression algorithms. These are called codecs for short. If your computer doesn’t have the codec that was used when the video was created, PowerPoint won’t play the video. PowerPoint for the Mac plays MOV (Quicktime) files; but PowerPoint for the PC doesn’t.

Dry-Aging Beef at Home
You can only age a whole rib-eye or loin strip at home. This method does not work with individual steaks. Unwrap it, rinse it well with cold water, and allow it to drain; then pat it very dry with paper towels. Wrap the meat in immaculately clean, large, plain white cotton dish towel (s) and place it on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator - which is the coldest spot. Change the towel (s) each day, replacing the moisture-soiled towel (s) with fresh. Continue to change towels as needed for 10 days, to 2 weeks. Clean towels as directed at the bottom of this list.

After the desired aging time, cut off steaks from each end, trim as desired. Allow the rest to continue to age in the refrigerator, changing the towels daily. If, after 21 days, you have not eaten all the meat, cut the remaining piece into steaks, wrap each steak in freezer-proof, heavy-duty plastic wrap, and freeze. The steaks will keep for several months in the freezer. To clean the towels for re-use, soak the soiled towels, immediately upon removing them from the meat, in cold water overnight.

Landlord Liability in Tenant Injuries

The landlord-tenant relationship is simple enough, but it carries with it immense responsibility for both parties. What happens if a tenant suffers respiratory illness from mold in the home they are renting? Most likely they will sue the property owner. With a measurable increase in lawsuits, liability is a huge concern for landlords. Therefore, landlords face immense pressure to comply with any housing issues that could attract legal action. We are wondering how a landlord can keep their property safe and protect themselves from petty lawsuits. At the same time, if a tenant is hurt by negligence of the landlord, we also want to know how they should proceed to receive the damages owed to them. Lawsuits have become a common reality in today’s culture, and we want to know how tenants and landlords can be prepared when an injury occurs on a rental property. Why We’re Asking: If you own your home, in most cases, you are responsible for any dangerous features on the property.

Lawsuits have become a common reality in today’s culture, and we want to know how tenants and landlords can be prepared when an injury occurs on a rental property. Why We’re Asking: If you own your home, in most cases, you are responsible for any dangerous features on the property. Unless you have contracted someone to do work and that work was done incorrectly, you have no one to blame but yourself if your well-being is compromised because of your home’s condition. In a rental situation, that’s not necessarily true. To find out how both parties can protect themselves and work together to make sure home conditions are safe, we’re turning to our panel of legal professionals. It’s time to weigh in. If a tenant sustains injury on the property, is there insurance available to protect the landlord?

What if the injury occurs inside the property? What type of damages is a landlord required to cover? Is there ever a situation where a personal injury lawyer should handle a case involving an injury on a rental property? We’re excited to hear back from our legal professionals.

Symptoms of Ebola virus disease occur suddenly up to 21 days after exposure and include fever, headache, sore throat, joint and muscle aches, and weakness, followed by diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach pain. Some patients may bleed inside and outside the body. A person is contagious when early symptoms start. Survivors remain contagious for 21-42 days after symptoms go away. Some patients have detectable virus in the semen and in the eyes for many months, but the contagious period related to this viral presence is unknown.

There is no licensed drug or vaccine available, but health researchers are testing experimental therapy (vaccine and antiviral drug). How Can Ebola Be Prevented? The World Health Organization (WHO) since 2015 has been conducting trials for an effective experimental vaccine called rVSV-ZEBOV, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.

Content: Is Ebola Curable? Treatment is supportive care. There is no licensed drug or vaccine available, but health researchers are testing experimental therapy (vaccine and antiviral drug). How Can Ebola Be Prevented? The World Health Organization (WHO) since 2015 has been conducting trials for an effective experimental vaccine called rVSV-ZEBOV, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. FDA approved the vaccine. What Is the History of Ebola Virus Disease? Health researchers discovered the first Ebola virus species in 1976 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (formerly Zaire, also known as the Republic of the Congo or simply as the Congo) near the Ebola River, where it received its name. The first outbreak of Ebola virus disease infected 318 people and caused 280 deaths, with a mortality rate of 88%. A simultaneous outbreak occurred in Sudan and caused a mortality rate of 53%.

The first outbreak of Ebola virus disease infected 318 people and caused 280 deaths, with a mortality rate of 88%. A simultaneous outbreak occurred in Sudan and caused a mortality rate of 53%. Since then, sporadic outbreaks have occurred in Central and West Africa, with no cases reported between 1979 and 1994. In 1989, infected monkeys imported from the Philippines introduced an Ebola virus strain, called Ebola-Reston, into Reston, Virginia. Fortunately, research workers exposed to the Ebola virus never developed symptoms of Ebola virus disease. Ebola hemorrhagic (or haemorrhagic) fever is another name for the disease. In March 2014, health researchers reported the latest and ongoing Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa.

In March 2014, health researchers reported the latest and ongoing Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa. It is the worst outbreak in Ebola virus history with a rising death toll in Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria. There was concern that the large number of infected people in this epidemic would cause a pandemic (spread of the disease worldwide) because infected people transmitted the disease for the first time to several African countries, Europe, and the United States (Texas). Fortunately, health care professionals contained the disease, avoiding a pandemic. As of 2015 (most recent statistical data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC]), there were almost 27,000 cases with over 11,000 deaths reported. Previous outbreaks had fewer than 500 cases per year according to CDC statistics.

The recent outbreak that began in the Bkoro health zone in May and spread to Mbandaka was considered to be finally over only about one week when new cases (individuals or "Ebola cases") began accumulating again in August 2018. Ilunga Kalenga, from Congo's health ministry, suggested the Congo had avoided a major Ebola crisis in July 2018. The World Health Organization considers this new Ebola outbreak in late July to have life-threatening risk because of the difficulty in treating people in armed conflicts and because there are about 1 million displaced people in the Ebola outbreak area (North Kivu province). Health researchers think the Zaire species (type) of Ebola virus caused this outbreak. QUESTION

What Are Ebola Virus Disease Causes and Risk Factors? An infection with the Ebola virus causes Ebola virus disease. The Ebola virus is a member of the Filoviridae family. Researchers have found the Ebola virus in African monkeys, chimpanzees, and other nonhuman primates. The natural reservoir (normal habitat) of Ebola viruses is unknown. However, researchers believe that the virus is zoonotic (animal-borne) with bats being the most likely reservoir. There are five identified species (types) of Ebola virus. Four of the five have caused disease in humans: Zaire ebolavirus
Sudan ebolavirus
Taï Forest ebolavirus
Bundibugyo ebolavirus
Reston ebolavirus (has not caused illness in humans)
The risk of getting Ebola virus disease is low for most people. All cases of illness or death have occurred in Africa, with the exception of laboratory contamination in Russia and England.

The risk increases if a person travels to or lives in Africa where Ebola virus disease outbreaks have occurred. Those at highest risk include the following: Health care workers and family and friends who have cared for an infected person with Ebola virus disease (any health workers in the outbreak area)
Laboratory personnel working with bodily fluids of an Ebola virus disease patient
Animal researchers with direct handling of bats, rodents, or primates from an area where Ebola virus disease has occurred
Individuals participating in funeral rites in which there is direct exposure to human remains where an Ebola virus disease outbreak is occurring
How Contagious Is Ebola, and How Long Is Someone With the Disease Contagious? Ebola virus infection can be highly contagious. The person becomes contagious when the first symptoms, like fever, begin to appear until the person dies.

How Contagious Is Ebola, and How Long Is Someone With the Disease Contagious? Ebola virus infection can be highly contagious. The person becomes contagious when the first symptoms, like fever, begin to appear until the person dies. The person who dies leaves a body that is extremely contagious until its cremation or burial. If an individual survives Ebola, the person remains contagious for approximately 21-42 days after the symptoms abate. However, Ebola viruses have been detected in men's semen for many months and in the eyes of males and females for months (Ebola survivors), but it is not clear how contagious the virus is in these locations.

Content: The person who dies leaves a body that is extremely contagious until its cremation or burial. If an individual survives Ebola, the person remains contagious for approximately 21-42 days after the symptoms abate. However, Ebola viruses have been detected in men's semen for many months and in the eyes of males and females for months (Ebola survivors), but it is not clear how contagious the virus is in these locations.

What Is the Incubation Period for Ebola? The incubation period for Ebola (time after initial infection with the virus to the appearance of first symptoms) varies from about two to 21 days, with an average incubation period of about eight to 10 days. How Does the Ebola Virus Spread? The Ebola virus is contagious after a person develops symptoms. How the virus first infects a human at the start of an outbreak is unknown but is thought to be from an infected animal transmitted to humans, either by direct contact (for example, fruit bats) or by eating wild animals like monkeys.

People can become exposed to the virus through direct contact with a sick person's blood or other body fluids, such as urine, saliva, feces, vomit, and semen. It also spreads through objects, such as needles, contaminated with infected body fluids. During an Ebola virus disease outbreak, the virus can spread quickly in hospitals and clinics, especially if health care workers are not wearing protective equipment such as masks, gowns, and gloves. Ebola virus is not spread through the air, by water, or food (with the notable exception of bushmeat that is defined as wild animals hunted for food), according to the CDC.

Picture of Women with Yeast Infection Disease
A vaginal yeast infection, also known as vaginal candidiasis, genital candidiasis, or vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), is an infection involving a type of fungus, or yeast. The fungus most commonly associated with vaginal yeast infection is called Candida albicans, which account for up to 92% of all cases, with the remainder due to other species of Candida. These fungi can be found all over the body and are normally present in warm and moist areas of the body. Studies have shown that up to 20% to 50% of all women normally carry yeast in the vagina without the presence of symptoms. When C albicans in the vagina multiplies to the point of infection, this infection can cause vaginal inflammation, irritation, odor, discharge, and itching. Certain types of bacteria that live naturally in the vagina usually keep C albicans from growing out of control. If the balance of these microorganisms becomes upset, C albicans may be allowed to grow uncontrollably and lead to symptoms. The use of certain medications including antibiotics, changes in hormone levels, or certain diseases are examples of factors that can allow a vaginal yeast infection to develop. Vaginal yeast infections are extremely common. Seventy-five percent of all women develop a yeast infection at some point during their lives.

Emergency Medicaid For Illegal Immigrants
Healthcare is very important for us to maintain good health. However, most people cannot afford the expensive health care coverage. The situation is even worse for illegal or undocumented immigrants who reside in the US, because they can’t purchase health insurance from private companies. These people can only get assistance from public health insurance programs under limited circumstances. At this time, the emergency Medicaid for illegal immigrants is providing assistance to those who cannot afford to pay the high costs for health care coverage. Medicaid health insurance is federally funded and is available to low income families and individuals. There is a Medicaid program in each state, so the specifics for eligibility requirements will be slightly different for everyone. The important thing to remember is that you have to provide the correct documentation to qualify for coverage, whether you are applying for emergency Medicaid for illegal immigrants or legal citizens. When applying for Medicaid coverage, you have to provide documentation such as birth certificate, government ID, Social Security card or naturalization documents for members of the household members. If you are an Illegal immigrant without the required paperwork, you can still submit an application to get emergency Medicaid coverage with limited services.

German Immigration to America
Content: During the Middle Ages the Christianization of the Germanic people and the formation of stable kingdoms replaced the tribal structures. The tribes merged to form the Germanic race sharing the same identity, language, culture and many similar physical characteristics. The first Christian religion of Germany was Roman Catholic but in 1517 Martin Luther initiated the Protestant Reformation which resulted in the whole of Northern Europe, with the exception of Germany, came under the influence of Protestantism. Protestant reform groups emerged including the Lutherans and Calvinists. Also refer to Examples of PUSH and PULL Factors of German Immigration. US Immigration
History of German Immigration to America in the 1600's: The First German American
The history of German Immigration to America began in the 1600's when German settlers made their way to the British colonies on the east coast of North America. The first English and the German settlers shared the same Protestant religion which the vast majority of the first immigrants to America would share. In 1607 English colonists established the Jamestown settlement in the Virginia Colony. The migrants included the first German American, Dr. Johannes Fleischer, a highly educated physician and trained botanist.

German Immigration to America
Content: The Forty-Eighters
German Immigration to America increased significantly following the European Revolutions of 1848 within the German states in which rebels fought for unification of the German people. The failure of the revolutionists led to a wave of political refugees who fled to the United States, who became known as the Forty-Eighters. The Forty-Eighters helped to developed the beer and wine making industries in the US. A favored destination of many of the Forty-Eighters was Galveston, Texas. History of German Immigration to America in the 1800's: The First Wave of German Immigration
The great waves of German Immigration to America occurred in the 1800's. The First Wave of German immigration occurred from the 1840's up to the American Civil War (1861 to 1865). Germany, like many other European countries, suffered from serious crop failures including the pot

Content: Kissing can also be inappropriate on certain parts of the body, such as the neck, breasts, and stomach, which again are especially sensitive and even sexually stimulating. My mother would sometimes playfully bite me, which is a modification of kissing and is also too intimate, in my opinion, to be appropriate between an adult and a child. Looking
Looking can involve seemingly innocent things like walking in on us while we’re bathing or dressing or keeping us company in a dressing room. Obviously there are times when parents need to do this, especially when their children are young. Covert sexual abuse, however, involves repetitive times when it’s inappropriate. For example, when I lived with my parents as a college student, my mother would come into the bathroom almost every time I bathed. As adults, we have the right to privacy when undressed. The fact that the person watching us is a parent doesn’t cancel that right out. Sexual abusers can also give us inappropriate looks. A father, for instance, may closely watch his daughter’s development through puberty.

Content: Her excuse was that she wanted her two daughters to get used to a man’s naked body, supposedly to prepare them for their future as girlfriends and wives. This kind of exposure between parent and child is completely inappropriate. Pornography
A parent who shares pornography with their child is also committing covert sexual abuse. It doesn’t matter if both abuser and child are adults and the abuser has no sexual thoughts about the child. Pornography is about sexual pleasure, and that’s a topic that’s not appropriate conversation between parents and their children, including adult children. Most of us realize this and don’t feel comfortable talking about it with our parents. By sharing with us pornography, abusers force us to violate what feels natural and venture into territory we shouldn’t have to venture into with them. Games
Games that involve nakedness or inappropriate touching or kissing are also covertly sexually abusive behaviors. Though seemingly innocent, they put the child in an inappropriate situation. Strip poker, for example, may be innocent enough fun among consenting adults, but it’s decidedly weird between adults and children or parents and their adult children.

Cultural Meanings of Color and Color Symbolism
An understanding of cultural color and symbolism is essential to anyone doing business with other countries and other societies. These associations with color have been a part of many societies for centuries and you must be aware of both the positive and the negative implications of using particular colors when marketing to these societies. With the advent of the World Wide Web, there is a narrowing of the differences in meanings of colors between different cultures and countries. However, if you are marketing to a particular ethnic group it is wise to take into account their color associations to maximise your impact. By mixing appropriate amounts of different colours however you can often neutralize inherent negative cultural connotations. Symbolic Color Meanings Throughout the World
The following is a basic list of some symbolic color meanings throughout the world. It is by no means a comprehensive list. I suggest you do your own research about the country or culture you are working with, to establish what colors are currently acceptable. Times change and old associations may be slowly altered over the years. Western cultures have adopted some Eastern color uses while some Eastern cultures have adopted Western ideas.

Content: Symbolic Color Meanings Throughout the World
The following is a basic list of some symbolic color meanings throughout the world. It is by no means a comprehensive list. I suggest you do your own research about the country or culture you are working with, to establish what colors are currently acceptable. Times change and old associations may be slowly altered over the years. Western cultures have adopted some Eastern color uses while some Eastern cultures have adopted Western ideas. The Internet has allowed people to learn about other cultures and to adopt what they like from those cultures. Therefore, the following meanings are traditional and not necessarily in current use in these cultures. Cultural Color Meanings of Red: Western: energy, excitement, action
danger
love, passion
a warning to stop
anger
Christmas combined with green
Valentine's Day

The 2008 United States presidential election was the 56th quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 4, 2008. The Democratic ticket of Barack Obama, the junior U.S. Senator from Illinois, and Joe Biden, the senior U.S. Senator from Delaware, defeated the Republican ticket of John McCain, the senior Senator from Arizona, and Sarah Palin, the Governor of Alaska. Obama became the first African American to be elected to the presidency, as well as being only the third sitting United States Senator elected president, joining Warren G. Harding and John F. Kennedy . Incumbent Republican President George W. Bush was ineligible to pursue a third term due to the term limits established by the 22nd Amendment. McCain secured the Republican nomination by March 2008, defeating former governors Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, and other challengers. The Democratic primaries were marked by a sharp contest between Obama and the initial front-runner, former First Lady and Senator Hillary Clinton.

Content: Obama campaigned on the theme that " Washington must change," while McCain emphasized his experience. The campaign was strongly affected by the onset of a major financial crisis, which peaked in September 2008. McCain's decision to suspend his campaign during the height of the financial crisis backfired as voters viewed his response as erratic. Obama won a decisive victory over McCain, winning the Electoral College and the popular vote by a sizable margin, including states that had not voted for the Democratic presidential candidate since 1976 (North Carolina) and 1964 (Indiana and Virginia). Obama received the largest share of the popular vote won by a Democrat since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964 and was the first Democrat to win an outright majority of the popular vote since Jimmy Carter in 1976. Obama's total count of 69.5 million votes stood as the largest tally ever won by a presidential candidate until 2020, when this was surpassed by both major party candidates in a high-turnout election. Obama flipped nine states that had voted Republican in 2004: Colorado, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, and Virginia, as well as Nebraska's 2nd congressional district .

Background
Further information: United States presidential election § Procedure
The incumbent in 2008, George W. Bush. His second term expired at noon on January 20, 2009. Article Two of the United States Constitution provides that the President and Vice President of the United States must be natural-born citizens of the United States, at least 35 years old, and residents of the United States for a period of at least 14 years. Candidates for the presidency typically seek the nomination of one of the political parties, in which case each party devises a method (such as a primary election) to choose the candidate the party deems best suited to run for the position. Traditionally, the primary elections are indirect elections where voters cast ballots for a slate of party delegates pledged to a particular candidate. The party's delegates then officially nominate a candidate to run on the party's behalf.

Before the primaries
Media speculation had begun almost immediately after the results of the 2004 presidential election were released. In the 2006 midterm elections, the Democrats regained majorities in both houses of the U.S. Congress. Early polls taken before anyone had announced a candidacy had shown Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama as the most popular potential Democratic c

Recorded history or written history is a historical narrative based on a written record or other documented communication. It contrasts with other narratives of the past, such as mythological, oral or archeological traditions. For broader world history, recorded history begins with the accounts of the ancient world around the 4th millennium BC, and coincides with the invention of writing. For some geographic regions or cultures, written history is limited to a relatively recent period in human history because of the limited use of written records. Moreover, human cultures do not always record all of the information relevant to later historians, such as the full impact of natural disasters or the names of individuals. Recorded history for particular types of information is therefore limited based on the types of records kept. Because of this, recorded history in different contexts may refer to different periods of time depending on the topic. The interpretation of recorded history often relies on historical method, or the set of techniques and guidelines by which historians use primary sources and other evidence to research and then to write accounts of the past. The question of the nature, and even the possibility of an effective method for interpreting recorded history, is raised in the philosophy of history as a question of epistemology.

Dionysius of Halicarnassus knew of seven predecessors of Herodotus, including Hellanicus of Lesbos, Xanthus of Lydia and Hecataeus of Miletus. He described their works as simple, unadorned accounts of their own and other cities and people, Greek or foreign, including popular legends. Herodotus (484 B.C. – c. 425 B.C.) has generally been acclaimed as the "father of history" composing his The Histories from the 450s to the 420s B.C. However, his contemporary Thucydides (c. 460 B.C. – c. 400 B.C.) is credited with having first approached history with a well-developed historical method in his work the History of the Peloponnesian War. Thucydides, unlike Herodotus, regarded history as being the product of the choices and actions of human beings, and looked at cause and effect, rather than as the result of divine intervention. History developed as a popular form of literature in later Greek and Roman societies in the works of Polybius, Tacitus and others. Saint Augustine was influential in Christian and Western thought at the beginning of the medieval period. Through the Medieval and Renaissance periods, history was often studied through a sacred or religious perspective. Around 1800, German philosopher and historian Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel brought philosophy and a more secular approach into historical study.

According to John Tosh, "From the High Middle Ages (c.1000–1300) onwards, the written word survives in greater abundance than any other source for Western history." Western historians developed methods comparable to modern historiographic research in the 17th and 18th centuries, especially in France and Germany, where they began investigating these source materials to write histories of their past.

Content: The closing ceremony was on August 21, 2016. Over 200 nations and more than 10,000 athletes competed. The motto of the Rio Olympics was “A New World.” The Ancient Olympics
The ancient Greeks dedicated the Olympic Games to the god Zeus. The original games were held on the plain of Olympia in Peloponnesos, Greece. The Greeks held the first Olympic games in the year 776 BC (over 2700 years ago), and had only one event, a sprint (a short run that was called the “stade”). The race was run by men who competed in the nude. A wreath of olive branches was placed on the winner’s head (in Greek, this is called a kotinos ). The olive tree was the sacred tree of Athens, Greece. Women were neither allowed to compete in the games nor to watch them, because the games were dedicated to Zeus and were therefore meant for men.

The four-year period between the Olympic games was called an olympiad. Every four years, for 1,170 years, the Greeks held an Olympics, which continued to grow and change. Many other sports were added, including other races, wrestling, boxing, pentathlon (five events, including the long jump, javelin throw, discus throw, foot race, and wrestling), and equestrian events (events with horses and people, like chariot races and horse races) The Olympic games were banned by the Byzantine Emperor Theodosius II in the year AD 394. The Modern Olympics
Over a fifteen hundred years later, Pierre de Frédy, Baron de Coubertin (1863-1937) (a French educator and sportsman) revived the Olympic Games. An all-male Olympic games were held in 1896, in Athens, Greece.

Content: Medically, EPO can increase the red blood cell count by 25-35% so it is used to treat certain forms of anemia (i.e. in chronic kidney failure). It has also been used by athletes to improve athletic performance by increasing the oxygen-carrying ability of their blood, and to fight fatigue. The blood however thickens with excessive use of EPO, so users can suffer blood clots, strokes, heart attacks and related deaths. Some uninformed practitioners believe that there is no overdose possible with Vitamin B12, however 5-10% of the population presents with above-normal levels of Vit B12, so if injections are erroneously given, they can trigger a number of adverse symptoms that may include coronary artery spasms with chest pains, numbness or pain down their right arm, and/or TIA-like symptoms with tingling / numbness on the right side of the face. There is also a risk of hypokalemia, pulmonary edema, peripheral vascular thrombosis, optic nerve atrophy for someone with Leber's disease, and others. Risks from intranasal use of Vitamin B12 include glossitis, headache, sore throat, rhinitis, and feeling of "pins and needles." Individuals suffering from Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) are also vulnerable to experience a worsening, or an acute flare-up of MVP symptoms following a Vitamin B12 shot if not indicated. Even without having had any Vitamin B12 injections, individuals who run naturally high Vitamin B12 and cobalt levels (which may include patients with mitral valve prolapse), tend to frequently suffer from tachycardia, panic-anxiety attacks, or angina-like chest pains, that may be accompanied by numbness and tingling in the face or extremities. In contrast to cellular measurements, blood tests for cobalt or Vitamin B12 levels (including the Schilling test) are not only very unreliable, but at times alarmingly wrong, subjecting patients to improper therapy, or routinely misdiagnosing them as Psychiatric Cases, when in fact correcting their abnormal cobalt, Vitamin B12 and nickel status (or ratios) could resolve the problem. If Vitamin B12 deficiency is suspect and there are no resources to measure cellular Vit B12 levels, then blood levels of methylmalonic acid (MMA) can help with assessing Vit B12 requirements since methylmalonic acid inversely increases with declining Vitamin B12 activity.

Redlining
Report on Redlining (cover), 1975
Redlining is the practice of arbitrarily denying or limiting financial services to specific neighborhoods, generally because its residents are people of color or are poor. While discriminatory practices existed in the banking and insurance industries well before the 1930s, the New Deal's Home Owners' Loan Corporation (HOLC) instituted a redlining policy by developing color-coded maps of American cities that used racial criteria to categorize lending and insurance risks. New, affluent, racially homogeneous housing areas received green lines while black and poor white neighborhoods were often circumscribed by red lines denoting their undesirability. Banks and insurers soon adopted the HOLC's maps and practices to guide lending and underwriting decisions. Further, the Federal Housing Administration, created in 1934, also used the HOLC's methods to assess locations for federally insured new housing construction. Like other forms of discrimination, redlining had pernicious and damaging effects. Without bank loans and insurance, redlined areas lacked the capital essential for investment and redevelopment. As a result, after World War II , suburban areas received preference for residential investment at the expense of poor and minority neighborhoods in cities like Chicago. The relative lack of investment in new housing, rehabilitation, and home improvement contributed significantly to the decline of older urban neighborhoods and compounded Chicago's decline in relation to its suburbs. Redlining's negative effects remained largely unrecognized by policymakers until the mid-1960s.

Content: Although experts have long agreed that many criminals should be punished by imprisonment, they have differing ideas about which crimes merit imprisonment, what length sentences should be, and how inmates should be treated. In American society, imprisonment is seen as serving multiple purposes. Primarily, incarceration is regarded as a punishment for criminal offenders, taking away their liberty and their ability to control their own lives. Such punishment gives crime victims, their families, and society a sense of retribution, or justice. A criminal must pay for the acts he or she has committed. That payment comes in the form of a loss of personal freedom. Locking up criminals also serves to protect the public. A burglar, rapist, or murderer can no longer harm society while serving time behind bars. Many experts believe that imprisonment, or rather the threat of it, keeps would-be criminals from committing crimes because the fear of punishment is so great. Finally, throughout history many criminal justice experts have viewed incarceration as an opportunity to provide counseling and training to offenders so that they can be reformed, or changed for the better, and rehabilitated, or prepared for a return to normal life.

Finally, throughout history many criminal justice experts have viewed incarceration as an opportunity to provide counseling and training to offenders so that they can be reformed, or changed for the better, and rehabilitated, or prepared for a return to normal life. The major problem facing prison reformers and administrators throughout history is that the various reasons for imprisoning people often conflict. For example, numerous experts suggest that strict punishments and long prison sentences do not necessarily keep people from committing crimes. They believe that the threat of prison does not increase public safety. During periods such as the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, when punishments became harsher and sentences longer, crime rates did not significantly decrease as expected. In addition, the failure of most attempts at reforming prisoners shows the difficulty of helping convicts change their ways while simultaneously subjecting them to the harsh realities of prison life.

State-sponsored Terrorism
G overnments are often the targets of terrorism, but they can also sponsor terrorists or use the tactics of terrorism. There are two broad definitions of "state-sponsored terrorism." One refers to governments that support or conduct terrorism against other governments. The other refers to governments that conduct terrorist acts against their own citizens. International state-sponsored terrorism
The U.S. State Department, which is in charge of the United States 's relationships with other countries, maintains a list of nations accused of conducting state-sponsored terrorism. The purpose of this list, the government says, is to put pressure on nations that either use terrorism or that support terrorist groups. The government also maintains a list of independent foreign terrorist organizations. Governments that support these organizations or do not help in efforts to arrest their members may be placed on the State Department's list. In the months following the September 11, 2001, attack on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon near Washington, D.C., the State Department had seven countries on its list of governments that engage in state-sponsored terrorism: Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Cuba, North Korea, and Sudan.

Khomeini resented the political and economic influence the United States had on Iran. Once the Shah was out of power, Khomeini strove to make Iran's break with the United States complete: he allowed mobs to seize the U.S. embassy and hold about seventy employees hostage for more than four hundred days, from the end of 1979 until the beginning of 1981. Khomeini and the leaders who came after him also wanted to set up fundamentalist Islamic governments in other Muslim countries. To do this, Iran began supporting and funding various organizations in other countries, many of which used terrorist tactics. Words to Know

The Palestinian people had long wanted to found a country of their own, and Iran helped create the idea that any new Palestinian country should be an Islamist state. Hamas and Hezbollah, from Lebanon, conducted terrorist attacks on Israel, a nation founded in 1948 on Palestinian land as a homeland for Jews, who, as a people, were systematically killed by the German military during World War II (1939–45).

Iraq invaded its neighbor to the south, Kuwait, in 1990 to acquire its oil reserves. In response the United States put together an international military force to drive out Iraq in what was called the Persian Gulf War (1990–91).

Content: The U.S. State Department also has accused Iraq of supporting terrorist groups, although as the twenty-first century began Iraq itself had not tried to carry out terrorist attacks for at least a decade. The Iraqi government has been accused of plotting to kill its opponents living in Europe and harassing their relatives who still live in Iraq. The United States further pointed to the fact that in 2000 an Iraqi was allowed to hold a news conference after he fired on an office of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. The attack killed two people and injured seven others. The shooter claimed he was protesting the harsh economic sanctions (bans on international trade) set on Iraq after the government refused to let United Nations inspectors look for evidence of nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. The United States claimed this was more evidence that Iraq supports terrorists. In 2000 Iraq refused to hand over two men who hijacked a Saudi Arabian plane and flew it to Baghdad. Iraq's refusal was in violation of international law. Several terrorist organizations are allowed to maintain offices in Baghdad, including the Abu Nidal Organization, the Palestine Liberation Front, and the MEK. Libya

PAN-AFRICANISM. Because it refers neither to a single political ideology nor a clearly discernible philosophical tradition, Pan-Africanism is difficult to define. Many scholars avoid defining it, noting that black internationalism has varied drastically according to time and place. Indeed, various conceptions of Pan-Africanism have been aligned with disparate political and theoretical positions, from largely religious to communist to even, Paul Gilroy suggests, fascist forms. Yet, the concept can be said to signify a set of shared assumptions. Pan-Africanist intellectual, cultural, and political movements tend to view all Africans and descendants of Africans as belonging to a single "race" and sharing cultural unity. Pan-Africanism posits a sense of a shared historical fate for Africans in the Americas, West Indies, and, on the continent itself, has centered on the Atlantic trade in slaves, African slavery, and European imperialism. Cultural and intellectual manifestations of Pan-Africanism have been devoted to recovering or preserving African "traditions" and emphasizing the contributions of Africans and those in the diaspora to the modern world. Pan-Africanists have invariably fought against racial discrimination and for the political rights of Africans and descendants of Africans, have tended to be anti-imperialist, and often espoused a metaphorical or symbolic (if not literal) "return" to Africa. Origins and Development of Pan-Africanism
The modern conception of Pan-Africanism, if not the term itself, dates from at least the mid-nineteenth-century.
