what are the three parts of small intestine and their function
Share with your friends
Content: The duodenum is the shortest part of the small intestine, measuring less than 10 inches long, and continues the digestive process that the stomach has started. The jejunum is where the majority of the absorption of nutrients takes place. The ileum is the longest part of the small intestine and is responsible for the absorption of B12 and the final processing of carbohydrates and proteins. The end of the ileum is where the small and large intestine meet and it's also where the appendix is located. Was this answer helpful? 2

Their is no life on other planets as they as either too cold or too hot like mars and mercury respectively. The earth is the only planet which has water on it and a gas called oxygen. So no other planet except for earth has life on it.

Why is there life on Earth and not at other planet? Answer 1: Hold on - there may be life on Mars. We don't yet know for certain that there isn't. Right now, life as we know it would not survive anywhere except Earth or Mars, and possibly Europa (in our solar system).

Right now, life as we know it would not survive anywhere except Earth or Mars, and possibly Europa (in our solar system). Life requires liquid water. Europa (one of Jupiters moons) has a muck of mud some hundreds of kilometers below the ice that has water in it, and there might be life there. Equatorial regions of Mars get above freezing for parts of the year, and while the Martian atmosphere is too thin to sustain liquid water on the surface, the pressure is great enough underground, and muddy slurries of landslides from subsurface water have been observed. Earth of course has oceans of the stuff. It all has to do with pressure and temperature for water.

Earth of course has oceans of the stuff. It all has to do with pressure and temperature for water. Now, whether there is life there or not, that we aren't sure of. Answer 2: Life is only found on Earth for a couple of reasons. We know that life requires sun, moderate temperatures, water, and certain chemical elements like carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen. No other planet has temperatures like Earth that are not too hot and not too cold.

Definition of BIPOC
Black, Indigenous, (and) People of Color POC is widely used as an umbrella term for all people of color, but now a different acronym is suddenly gaining traction on the internet—BIPOC, which stands for Black, Indigenous, People of Color. People are using the term to acknowledge that not all people of color face equal levels of injustice. They say BIPOC is significant in recognizing that Black and Indigenous people are severely impacted by systemic racial injustices. — Chevaz Clarke In recent weeks, as protests against police brutality and racism have flooded the streets and social media, another more inclusive term has been ascribed to the population: BIPOC. The acronym stands for "black, Indigenous and people of color." — Sandra E. Garcia

Types of Administrative Agencies
There are several different kinds of administrative agencies which are created by Congress or the state where the agency resides. The agencies are designed in order to function as an agent of the executive branch of the U.S. government. In addition, the agencies can serve many different roles. For example, the Environmental Protection Agency (or EPA) oversees the safety and protection of the environment, from wetlands protections to polluted groundwater and everything in between. The Federal Drug Administration (or FDA) and the Department of Homeland Security, meanwhile, are concerned with the safety of U.S. citizens. For instance, the FDA oversees the safety of the public health by regulating the production of drugs, vaccines, veterinary medicines, medical devices, and more. The Department of Homeland Security, on the other hand, is responsible for protecting the public against threats of violence to the United States. Additionally, on a state or local level, administrative agencies can consist of local zoning boards or land planning boards.

Content: You open this attachment, and the virus immediately spreads through your computer system. In some cases, if the virus is opened by a computer on a system network, such as your place of employment, the virus can immediately be spread throughout the network without needing to be sent via email. There are numerous reasons that a person would create a virus to send out to another computer or computers. It may be to steal information or money, to sabotage that system or to demonstrate the flaws that the other computer system has. In some cases these viruses are able to be removed from the user's computer system, and in some cases they are not. Therefore, it is easy for us to understand how these viruses cause significant financial harm every year. The punishment for those who damage or gain unauthorized access to a protected computer can be prison time and the repayment of financial losses. Cyberstalking
Cyberstalking is the use of the Internet or electronics to stalk or harass an individual, an organization or a specific group. There are many ways in which cyberstalking becomes a cyber crime. Cyberstalking can include monitoring someone's activity realtime, or while on the computer or device in the current moment, or while they are offline, or not on the computer or electronic device.

Cyberstalking is the use of the Internet or electronics to stalk or harass an individual, an organization or a specific group. There are many ways in which cyberstalking becomes a cyber crime. Cyberstalking can include monitoring someone's activity realtime, or while on the computer or device in the current moment, or while they are offline, or not on the computer or electronic device. Cyberstalking becomes a crime because of the repeated threatening, harassing or monitoring of someone with whom the stalker has, or no longer has, a relationship. Cyberstalking can include harassment of the victim, the obtaining of financial information of the victim or threatening the victim in order to frighten them. An example of cyberstalking would be to put a recording or monitoring device on a victim's computer or smartphone in order to save every keystroke they make so that the stalker can obtain information. Another example would be repeatedly posting derogatory or personal information about a victim on web pages or social media despite being warned not to do so. Cyberstalking has the potential punishment of a prison sentence.

Identity theft is a form of stealing someone's personal information and pretending to be that person in order to obtain financial resources or other benefits in that person's name without their consent. Identity theft is considered a cyber crime. The personal information stolen can include the person's name, social security number, birth date or credit card numbers. This stolen information is then used to obtain new credit cards, access bank accounts or obtain other benefits, such as a driver's license. Identity theft is completed by using breaches in the victim's browser security or through spyware, which is software placed unknowingly on a person's computer in order to obtain information.

Content: The damage from phishing scams usually results in financial loss. In January 2007, a defendant in California became the first individual convicted by a jury for phishing. He was found guilty of sending thousands of emails to America Online, or AOL, email users while pretending to be AOL's billing department. By posing as the billing department, he was able to obtain personal and credit card information of these users. Phishing is punishable by a prison sanction. Lesson Summary

Content: Radon is a colorless and odorless radioactive gas that seeps into homes from rocks, soil and water underneath. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S., coming in just behind tobacco smoke. Lead is another indoor environmental hazard. Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can cause damage to major organs like your brain, liver, kidneys and stomach. Lead also causes mental retardation, anemia, and hearing loss. Lead is found in homes in old pipes and paint. When water passes through lead pipes, it contaminates the water and causes lead poising. Lead in paint is especially dangerous to children because babies and young children like to peel paint from walls and then eat or inhale the lead from the paint. Asbestos is yet another indoor hazard. Asbestos has long been used for insulation in buildings, but its good insulating properties also make it dangerous.

Content: When asbestos is inhaled, the fibrous structure of this mineral makes it stick in your lung tissue, and the rest of the body then produces an acid to fight it. The acid scars the lung tissue but doesn't really do much to get rid of the asbestos, and the result is lung cancer or non-functioning lungs. Because we now know the dangers of indoor environmental hazards, there have been great efforts to remove them from our environment. Radon detection kits are available to test homes for the presence of radon gas. Pipes used in new-home construction contain much less lead than in older homes, and most paints are now lead-free. Asbestos is being removed from public buildings, but there are some who think that the exposure from removing asbestos is actually more dangerous than leaving it in place. Lesson Summary
We encounter a number of environmental hazards every day. Environmental health involves understanding all of the physical, chemical, biological and cultural hazards from natural and human-made sources. Physical hazards come from physical processes, which can be discrete events, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and volcano eruptions, or they can be long-term hazards like UV radiation. Chemical hazards can come from a variety of natural and human-made sources.

Health Science Degrees
Health science degrees, ranging from associate degrees to doctorates, prepare students for an array of jobs in the fields of nutrition, exercise science, healthcare management, pharmacy, therapy, and more. Certificate programs are also beneficial in this field. An advanced health science degree opens the door to professional and hospital jobs, and many health science majors become doctors, surgeons, dentists, chiropractors, and therapists. Still other health science majors may pursue careers with government or nonprofit organizations. Health science careers are often both fulfilling and rewarding, with opportunities to inform, rehabilitate, and care for others while earning a reliable, comfortable salary. The field is growing as the nation's population ages, with high expectations for job growth in almost every health science occupation. What Kinds of Health Science Degrees Are There? Health science degrees are commonly divided into tracks that allow students to focus their studies toward a given career. Common degree titles include Associate of Applied Science in Health Sciences or Bachelor of Science (BS) in Health Science, Health Administration, Public Health, and Pre-Professional Health Studies. Advanced degrees may carry more job-specific titles, such as Master of Science (MS) in Occupational Therapy, Dietetics and Nutrition, Speech-Language Pathology, Rehabilitation Counseling, and other specializations, although many universities offer an MS in Health Science or an MS in Health Administration.

Some colleges may choose to divide health science majors into separate majors instead of separate tracks. It is possible to major in nutrition or in child and family studies, for instance. Other schools may offer majors in subfields like dental hygiene or laboratory science. Health science degrees may also take the form of pre-professional programs, which may be further divided into tracks like those mentioned above, but with greater specificity. For example, pre-nursing, pre-medicine, pre-pharmacy, or pre-dentistry help to funnel students into their intended professional programs. However, it is more common for students to major in biology, chemistry, or general health sciences with a pre-professional track if interested in professional degrees.

Content: Gain Work Experience
Some states require that entry-level bounty hunters work as apprentices under experienced bail enforcement agents. These apprentices must attain a certain number of hours before they are allowed to advance to higher positions or to work as independent contractors of a bail enforcement agency. Step 5: Become Bonded
While a bounty hunter's license is active, the individual must maintain a surety bond in an amount specified by that state. Some states allow bounty hunters to acquire a liability insurance policy that protects them against damages that may arise while performing bail enforcement duties. Employees of bail enforcement agencies are usually exempt from this requirement. Salary Information
Typically, bounty hunters earn salaries based on commission; for each apprehension, a bounty hunter may take anywhere from 10% to 20% of the bond paid for the individual's release. Skill, experience, and location contribute greatly to the amount of money a bail enforcement agent can make. Those bounty hunters able to safely bring in more dangerous fugitives will make significantly more money than those required to escort individuals who have no criminal or violent records.

Content: The Roman army had strict rules to make certain that soldiers wouldn't defect or run from battle. These rules made it possible to keep the army organized. With the expansion of Rome by its armies , Roman culture was spread throughout the Roman Empire. Rome expanded to the point that members of the army would spend 20-25 of their lives serving in the army and leaving their farms untended. Some changes had to be made . The Roman army was open to all men not just those who
owned land. Soldiers also received pay for their services. These changes helped return the landowners to their farms but made big changes in the army. The
new soldiers were more like mercenaries, they fought for and obeyed the person who paid them. They weren't fighting to protect their lands but to get their pay.

Content: This development is a result of a number of factors, including the declining birthrate, which helps explain the decline in the percentage of younger workers. Second contributing factor to an aging workforce is the improved health and medical care, which is helping people live longer, more productive lives. The changing age composition of the workforce is forcing organizations to make a number of adjustments. One is learning how to deal effectively with older workers. In the past this was not a problems because older workers were forced to retire. As a results, the number of age discrimination complaints has increased dramatically. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has thousands of complaints each year, about 20 percent of all charges. The key here is that organizations cannot discriminate on the basis of age. Organizations must begin to listen to their older employees, determine how their needs are different from those of younger workers, and learn to draw from the expertise and experience that older employees can offer. On the other hand, organizations must also learn how to deal with younger employees having totally different values and attitudes.

Whatever unjust is happening is usually against the law and it might not be something that is considered a moral practice.

Although the situation of social injustice in the world has been improved but there are still many instances where people had to face tough situations and they had no way through which they could get their sorrows heard. Social inequality came forward in the 18 th century through the writing of some philosophers. That was the time when people got awareness of how social differences prevail in the society. There are plenty of social injustice issues but 3 of the common ones have been discussed here: Discrimination: Although it is a single term but it includes tons of social inequalities on the basis of culture, politics, religion or even ethnic group.

When it is applied to the institutional level, then it includes restraining the rights of the elderly or treating them in a prejudicial manner. Example of Social Injustice
There are plenty of examples of social injustice today, even when we say that the conservative minds of people have changed. US is a country full of educational gains but the unfortunate fact is that women in the country make only 82% of males, as per the recent estimates. There is a lot of wage gap between male and female due to race and the educational level. The earnings of women are less because you are only given a chance to join the fields that have low earning potentials.

The earnings of women are less because you are only given a chance to join the fields that have low earning potentials. Even if the male and female are in the same field, the female gets to make 7% less of her male counterpart. This is quite of an injustice based on gender equality. The world might be making progress in terms of providing social justice and there might be many laws made and authorities hired for this purpose, there is one thing for sure, injustice still prevails. But that does not mean there is nothing that can be done against it. Like it is said, even if there is a slight of injustice anywhere, it is going to become a threat to justice just about everywhere.

you came from a rich family your choices would have been nursing or teaching. Coming from
a poor family women tended to just become a domestic servent.

Title: Andrew Carnegie Success Story
Headings: Andrew Carnegie Success Story
Andrew Carnegie Success Story
Content: He abhorred charity, and instead put his money to use helping others help themselves. In 1901, Carnegie made a dramatic change in his life. He sold his business to the United States Steel Corporation, started by legendary financier J.P. Morgan. The sale earned him more than $200 million. At the age of 65, Carnegie decided to spend the rest of his days helping others. While he had begun his philanthropic work years earlier by building libraries and making donations, Carnegie expanded his efforts in the early 20th century. Although he had little formal education, Carnegie grew up in a family that believed in the importance of books and learning. Carnegie, an avid reader for much of his life, donated approximately $5 million to the New York Public Library so that the library could open several branches in 1901. Devoted to learning, he established the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh, which is now known as Carnegie-Mellon University in 1904. The next year, he created the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching in 1905.

He made numerous other donations, and it is said that more than 2,800 libraries were opened with his support. Carnegie also enjoyed traveling and meeting and entertaining leading figures in many fields. He was friends with Matthew Arnold, Mark Twain, William Gladstone, and Theodore Roosevelt. Carnegie also wrote several books and numerous articles.

Title: Sum ergo cogito, cogito ergo dubito: This is why psychiatry is important.

Sum ergo cogito, cogito ergo dubito
Wednesday, 28 January 2009
This is why psychiatry is important.
Content: For there, you see, is the rub. A mental illness is not just behaviour we don't like or aren't used to, it's behaviour we aren't used to and which seriously fucks up the sufferer. We lump them together in diagnoses based upon shared patterns of symptomatology not because we have the definitive proof that they actually are related (physiologically, we don't), but because this allows us to talk about patterns of behaviour that respond in a similar fashion to certain treatments, and therefore guides us in which treatments we should be using. Over at Science-Based Medicine, Harriet has written the best post I think I've ever seen which summarises these matters and explains why psychiatry is important and needs our research dollars. If you want a more in-depth look, Steven Novella links to a five-part series he wrote on Neurologica about mental illness denial. The problems discussed by Harriet are the usual problems which will always plague any school of medicine which can't show you before-and-after X-rays, and are ones which even I have made reference to over the years - flawed studies done using the inherently difficult-to-research subject matter of people; the inability to do a blood-test for mental illness (can't do one for migraine, either); the problems with the DSM, an inherently political and cumbersome document (which, incidentally, contains shifting diagnoses that have lead to a large part of the hysteria about the so-called and completely fallacious "autism epidemic") and so on. Psychiatry remains like many other fields of medicine - the practitioner is important, the relationship between the practictioner and the patient is crucial, and just like your GP when they don't have access to blood tests and want to play on the safe side, medication is an inexact science. But people who deny treatment because they deny the existence of psychiatric disorders, or are terrified about suidical ideation, are firmly in the same category as people refuse other forms of medical treatment - they are dying basic human rights, and perpetuating abuse through neglect.

Shoplifting is the commonly used term to describe the act (by a non-employee) of removing something from a retail establishment, during business hours, without making payment for it. An even more common word, 'stealing,' is also used to describe this act. In fact, there are no criminal statutes known as 'shoplifting' or 'stealing'; they are simply terms used to describe the act. Shoplifting: A Part of Our Culture
Shoplifting is a well-entrenched cultural phenomena as evidenced by the many slang terms used to describe the act that have evolved thru time such as 'boost', 'rip-off', 'jack', 'clip', 'get-over', 'gank', 'pocket', 'swipe', and the truly descriptive 'five finger discount'. The act of price switching, or intentionally altering price tags or stickers on merchandise in an effort to pay an amount less than what the owner is actually selling the item for, is another extremely common form of shoplifting. Theft, petty theft and criminal conversion are the most frequent legal terms applied to the act of shoplifting.

Shoplifting: Where is the Justice? or "How to Succeed in Prosecuting a Shoplifter & Stay on the Right Side of the Law!" In criminal court, for the Prosecuting Attorney's Office to prove that a theft or criminal conversion has taken place, certain specific elements of the crime must be established beyond a reasonable doubt during trial. If the case reaches court, a common defense is challenging the prosecution's efforts to prove 'intent'. There are many variables to conducting the successful apprehension of a suspected shoplifter. In many cases it is not enough that an employee witnessed an individual conceal the item on his person in the middle of the store. Store personnel responding to a shoplifting incident should be trained to comply with company policy and still remain prepared for any response from the suspect.

Store personnel responding to a shoplifting incident should be trained to comply with company policy and still remain prepared for any response from the suspect. If the suspect is injured during apprehension, if the court case is unsuccessful, or if the suspect's rights were violated, the business could find itself in a defendant's role against charges of false arrest, assault, battery, defamation of character or any number of contentions by the 'victim' of your well-intentioned staff. In fact, there are individuals who have made a career out of intentionally acting suspiciously like shoplifters in the hope they will be stopped improperly so they can bring suit against the business that made the apprehension.

Even a seemingly 'good' shoplifting 'stop' can have disastrous consequences for your business and people's lives.

This serves as a deterrent to some, but more importantly, it identifies the store’s intentions clearly and can’t be questioned in court. In the event a shoplifter is apprehended by store employees, arrested by local law enforcement and eventually prosecuted in criminal court, the written policy serves as the company’s foundation for the actions taken. It is also critically important that the shoplifting policy and its attentive responsibilities, is explained to all employees of the business. The ‘Shoplifting Policy’ should not be a stand alone document, but rather a piece of an overall Loss Prevention Program that has been designed specifically for your business. A loss prevention professional with appropriate training, experience and technological expertise should be utilized when designing any Loss Prevention Program.

To a Loss Prevention professional with 25 years experience, the question ‘Why do people shoplift?’ is actually humorous. Suffice to say, the motivations behind shoplifting are as many and varied as the persons who perpetrate the criminal act . Without delving too deeply into psychology, its safe to say that some shoplifters do so for a reason totally unrelated to acquiring the item they are removing, while a portion are full-time professionals who make a good living at it, until they are caught, that is. They can be broken down into two distinct categories, casual or amateur shoplifters and the professional or "lifestyle" shoplifter. For information about the difference between them, and the risks involved with each, read Why Do People Shoplift?

Here’s most of an article from the Tucson Weekly in 1995 written by Dave McElfresh. It deals with Van's personality and his spiritual quest while reviewing the then recently released Days Like This (1995).

That's not my post - I'm heterosexual, but I can appreciate why ladies might have found 1977-era Van Morrison attractive. Richard Elliott - The article concludes by focusing on a moment within Cyprus Avenue where Morrison performs the act of being tongue-tied, discussing this as an example of ‘aesthetic stutter’. Izak "Fergo" Ferguson - National Service would have done Van a lot of good. He needs discipline, respect, the ability to follow orders and a bit more of the old fitness.

Ways to get a more precise confidence interval
Learn more about Minitab
If your confidence interval is too wide, you cannot be very certain about the true value of a parameter, such as the mean. However, you can use several strategies to reduce the width of a confidence interval and make your estimate more precise. The characteristics that follow affect the width of the confidence interval. Sample size
Variation in the data
Type of interval
Confidence level
Increase the sample size
Often, the most practical way to decrease the margin of error is to increase the sample size. Usually, the more observations that you have, the narrower the interval around the sample statistic is. Thus, you can often collect more data to obtain a more precise estimate of a population parameter. You should weigh the benefits of increased precision with the additional time and resources required to collect a larger sample. For example, a confidence interval that is narrow enough to contain only the population parameter requires that you measure every subject in the population. Obviously, such a strategy would usually be highly impractical. Reduce variability

Title: Ways to get a more precise confidence interval - Minitab Express
Headings: Ways to get a more precise confidence interval
Ways to get a more precise confidence interval
Increase the sample size
Reduce variability
Use a one-sided confidence interval
Lower the confidence level
Content: Thus, you can often collect more data to obtain a more precise estimate of a population parameter. You should weigh the benefits of increased precision with the additional time and resources required to collect a larger sample. For example, a confidence interval that is narrow enough to contain only the population parameter requires that you measure every subject in the population. Obviously, such a strategy would usually be highly impractical. Reduce variability
The less that your data varies, the more precisely you can estimate a population parameter. That's because reducing the variability of your data decreases the standard deviation and, thus, the margin of error for the estimate. Although it can be difficult to reduce variability in your data, you can sometimes do so by adjusting how you collect data. For example, you can use a paired design to compare two groups. You may also be able to reduce variability by improving the process so that the process is more consistent or by measuring more precisely. Use a one-sided confidence interval
A one-sided confidence interval has a smaller margin of error than a two-sided confidence interval.

In a report issued in January this year, the government’s China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC) claimed a penetration rate of 42.1 percent. It says China has 564 million Internet users, of whom 277 million access the Internet via a mobile device. Although it is difficult to give an accurate number of western social networks users in China, some reports say that Facebook users have reached 63.5 million (an eight-fold increase in two years) and that Twitter users are now 35 million (a three-fold increase in three years). Estimated number of Weibo users is 504 million. A DSL connection with a data rate of one megabit costs between $10 and $20 a month, depending on the province. Surveillance of the network
A government matter
Many government departments are involved in censoring and monitoring the Web: The Internet Affairs Bureau and the Centre for the Study of Public Opinion of the State Council Information Office (effectively the government)
The Internet Bureau and the Information and Public Opinion Bureau of the Publicity Department (formerly the Propaganda Department). The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT)
The Internet Information Security Supervision of the Ministry of Public Security
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s Internet Illegal Information Reporting Centre
Table: Internet control bodies
The fourth and fifth of these bodies deal with issues of pornography, violence and computer fraud.

Nori (海苔) is commonly used to refer to pressed sheets of dried laver used in sushi bars to make sushi rolls. The original Nori was a paste, and a form of it is still popular in Japan, but today the term is commonly used to refer only to the dark green paper-thin sheets used in sushi bars. Shredded varieties and mixtures containing other flavoring are also popular ways to eat nori in Japanese cuisine, but again most westerners know only the sheets of nori used in their local sushi bar or Japanese restaurant. Nori as we see it is pressed, dried sheets of seaweed. This seaweed is a type of red algae, although by the time it's dried and ready to eat it's dark green; almost black in color. Korea and Japan both produce billions of sheets of Nori each year, but increasingly cheaper grades are being supplied by China. Every year the demand in America for nori to make various sushi rolls increases, even though nigirizushi remains the staple of the Japanese sushi experience.

Every year the demand in America for nori to make various sushi rolls increases, even though nigirizushi remains the staple of the Japanese sushi experience. Nori production was always unpredictable, as fishermen gathered it off rocks just offshore, and eventually off fencing and netting kept at around 25 feet below the surface. After harvesting the seaweed is washed, shredded and pressed to make giant sheets. It is then roasted, which changes the color to a darker green or even black, then it's cut into small squares ready to be packaged or eaten. Only in the last generation or so have sushi rolls become the top sellers in the world of sushi. As nori harvesting became predictable and steady, and as non-traditional sushi rolls flourished in America, nori gained prominence in the arsenal of the sushi chefs.

As nori harvesting became predictable and steady, and as non-traditional sushi rolls flourished in America, nori gained prominence in the arsenal of the sushi chefs. Before the 17th century, laver was gathered in an ad hoc fashion and was a rarity. Then in Japan people began to cultivate it, and today the manufacturing process is mature and predictable. Nori is used in several ways in sushi bars, for nigiri "bands" holding toppings in place, for the wrapping around gunkanmaki, for temaki (hand rolls) and most sushi rolls. No need to use it sparingly either, because nori is loaded with minerals like magnesium, zinc, iodine and potassium. And nori is not lacking in vitamins like vitamin A, vitamin B complex, and vitamin C. Nori is high in fiber and low in carbs and fat.
