The great nation of the United States was founded on the golden principles of freedom and equality for all. In fact, equality of the African Americans was the very basis for the American Civil War. However, even after so many years after the Civil War, the African Americans are still treated with discrimination. Even the criminal justice system of the U.S., which is considered to be the most extensive throughout the world, does not ensure equality of the black Americans. Even though the African Americans constitute only about 13.3 percent of the population of the United States, the prisons are full of them. The major reason behind such racial disparities is the racial prejudice at the hands of the very people sworn in to protect the minorities, like police officials and judges. Furthermore, the policies of the government also significantly contribute to this undesirable trend. Black Americans are under great threat of being incarcerated, as they constitute almost half of the prison populations in the states of Illinois, Georgia, North Carolina, Mississippi, Michigan, Alabama, Virginia, New Jersey, Louisiana and Virginia. This percentage is much more (at 72 percent) in Maryland. All these statistics demonstrate the high racial disparity faced by these people all across the United States. | https://academic-master.com/racism-in-americas-criminal-justice-system/ |

The conditions are even worse in the cases related to drugs. The use of drugs among the blacks and whites is almost the same, as shown by a 2013 survey conducted by the Health and Human Services Department of the United States. Yet, the African Americans are arrested more than twice their population on drug-related charges. As per the statistics of the FBI, of all the drug arrests, 29 percent constitute African Americans. The same can be said in regards to marijuana, with the blacks being 3.73 percent more likely to be arrested as compared to the white Americans. | https://academic-master.com/racism-in-americas-criminal-justice-system/ |

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WASTE DISPOSAL
Content: According to the 2015 report of the Federation of American Federations of Bar Associations, defendants often complain of crimes committed without having understood the legal rights. All Americans have basic right to hire lawyers, but this right does not apply to many African Americans. As citizen defenders are short to protect litigation on their behalf, countless innocent blacks are executed in prison. By contrast, Caucasian Americans have easy access to public defenders and most people can win a trial. Young African Americans may be convicted for twice the crime of white Americans’ children. In the same way, unlike white children, black children are 2.5 times more likely to be arrested due to curfew breach. Children of African-Americans are twice as likely to be detained as white children. Furthermore, according to a study of the National Academy of Sciences, it is clear that blacks are more likely to be jailed than whites while waiting for their affairs to be heard. According to the survey, African Americans tend to be subject to imprisonment conditions instead of community service, unlike white-American Americans. This explains why more Americans are black than white people in prisons. | https://academic-master.com/racism-in-americas-criminal-justice-system/ |

This explains why more Americans are black than white people in prisons. The same goes for the use of physical force by the police while arresting black Americans. Once arrested, they are under a greater threat of being faced by mandatory sentencing charges. For example, blacks are twice more likely to face imprisonment instead of community service in contrast to the white Americans. Moreover, after completing their prison sentences, these people face great difficulty getting a job. It is true that acquiring a job with a criminal record is hard for a person of any race, yet it is much harder for the African Americans than the white people. | https://academic-master.com/racism-in-americas-criminal-justice-system/ |

Life of Doubt
Content: It was all possible because of his aggressive opposition of the Treaty of Versailles. During 1920’s, the aggressive stance of Hitler against the Treaty and his expressive attitude towards it, according to some historians, played just as much role in worsening economic conditions of Germany’s Weimar Republic as much the terms of surrender. While Great Depression is stated as the worst time in the American and World’s economic history, the Germany had been through a similar phase due to the treaty. Germany, as a result of provision of the treaty, had considerable amount of territory of both the eastern Prussian regions. It had also surrendered the Alsace-Lorraine region in favor of France. Germany was owing a staggering amount of over 130 billion gold Deutsch-marks in lieu of the war reparations. It was the highest ever recorded in the world history. The Great Depression in the Germany was a result of the huge war debt and loss of the industries due to loss of control on the surrendered regions, which in turn initiated the severe shortage of the basic necessities. Germany also had to significantly reduce its paramilitary forces and its operational capabilities were also barred by limiting the access to war assets like airplanes, machine guns and warships. To conclude, the Treaty of Versailles eventually turned to be the foundation of the darkest chapter of Europe’s history. | https://academic-master.com/the-treaty-of-versailles-and-how-it-helped-adolf-hitler-come-into-power/ |

I contacted the router firm, and it sounded as though firm’s calls were outsourced to India. Every time I tried calling them I would be linked to a person with an Indian accent. The analysis
In the current economic crisis, the rift expands each day making the ones at the center to stretch to one extreme ends. However, there do not seem to be any reconciliation measures to block this disparity since the economy is losing national borders. Several reasons are playing a part and swaying every reason for the drift, but the main factors influencing the ‘hourglass’ economy are seniority, increased automation, outsourcing, and secessions (REICH 45). With rank, labor unions are a significant player. The production jobs are disappearing at a fast rate in the traditional unionized companies, where remuneration have tried keeping up with the inflation. | https://academic-master.com/why-the-rich-are-getting-richer-the-poor-get-poorer-by-robert-reich/ |

Content: Skeletal muscle sarcolemma is characterized by invaginations called transverse- or t-tubules that run perpendicular to the surface of the cell deep into its body. By passing down the t-tubular membrane, the action potential is carried to the structures responsible for transducing an electrical into a chemical signal that will trigger activation of the contractile elements. Excitation-contraction coupling
This term encompasses the processes by which the surface membrane action potential leads to interaction of the intracellular contractile elements. The t-tubular membrane contains the highest density in the body of binding sites for dihydropyridine compounds, such as nifedipine. This finding was initially assumed to suggest that arrival of the action potential in the t-tubules opened voltage-gated Ca 2+ channels. We now know that, although the t-tubular dihydropyridine receptors show marked amino acid homology with L-type voltage gated Ca 2+ channels of other tissues, they do not function as Ca 2+ channels. Their role in skeletal muscle is that of voltage sensors. When the action potential arrives in the t-tubule, the change in membrane potential leads to a conformational change in the α-subunit of the dihydropyridine receptor. This subunit consists of four transmembrane domains each of six segments ( Fig. 1 ). | https://academic.oup.com/bjaed/article/6/1/1/347004 |

Content: Garrett (2015) argues that, through political rhetoric and the training of social workers, the state directs social work towards an individual analysis of social problems, whereby social work is pressured to intervene with individuals to change their actions and behaviour as the solution to the problems they experience. Central to Garrett's thesis is that social work in contemporary British society is too heavily directed, and being further pushed, towards the human agency of social work clients. The casting of social problems as matters of individual behaviour—a focus on the individual—implicitly and explicitly brings questions of human agency to the fore. In a similar analysis from the USA, Levin et al. ( 2013) argue that social work has overlooked systems and ecological frameworks. With Olson (2007), they argue that organisational pressures and a desire to achieve a professional status mean that social work focuses on micro-based interventions directed at individual behaviour. Indeed, Reisch and Jani (2012) suggest that contemporary social work in the USA has moved away from its critical narrative of resistance and challenging the status quo. Instead, and consistently with the characterisation of neo-liberalism in the UK, they argue that social work has moved towards dominant cultural ideas of the primacy of the individual. Others have outlined contrasting views. Rather than the individual as the unit of analysis, Parsell, Tomaszewski and Phillips (2014) claim that, for political and ideological reasons, social work has deliberately overlooked human agency of social work clients. | https://academic.oup.com/bjsw/article/47/1/238/3051692 |

A series of research questions are offered to address these issues. Coagulase-negative staphylococci were considered to be urinary contaminants prior to the 1960s. In 1962, Torres Pereira [ 1] reported the isolation of coagulase-negative staphylococci possessing antigen 51 from the urine of women with acute UTI. In subsequent years, additional reports supported this concept [ 2 ]. | https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/40/6/896/347623 |

Laboratory identification of S. saprophyticus is made on the basis of resistance to novobiocin, the absence of hemolysin and coagulase, and intense pigment production.

This provides a simple and reliable screening method to differentiate the presence of S. saprophyticus from the presence of other coagulase-negative staphylococci, but further tests are recommended for final identification.

S. saprophyticus can also cause UTI in males of all ages; the organism has been isolated in young boys [ 13 ], male homosexuals, and elderly men with indwelling urinary catheters [ 14 ]. It also can cause urethritis, epididimitis, prostatitis, and nephrolithiasis in men, and is relatively rare in hospitalized men [ 15 ]. In contrast, S. saprophyticus appears to be unusual in Israel. In a study performed 20 years ago [ 16 ], we did not find any cases of S. saprophyticus infection among 198 young women with acute UTI. In addition, only 103 (0.3%) of 35,580 and 88 (0.6%) of 15,206 urine cultures performed at 2 microbiological laboratories in Northern Israel that were positive for a pathogen yielded S. saprophyticus (unpublished data). | https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/40/6/896/347623 |

There is one puzzling report of the recovery of coagulase-negative staphylococci in 15.6% of young Israeli women with UTI who have been recently sexually active [ 17 ]. Unfortunately, the bacterial isolates were not further identified. These significant differences in incidence could be attributed to different techniques of sampling, delivery, culture, and interpretation of cultures used by different authors. Although S. saprophyticus mainly infects young women, other coagulase-negative staphylococci are usually isolated from hospitalized elderly patients with urinary indwelling catheters or other manipulations of the urinary tract. The main reason for this difference is the capacity of S. saprophyticus to adhere to the uroepithelial cells, and other coagulase-negative staphylococci have the ability to colonize indwelling catheters. | https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/40/6/896/347623 |

Content: The gastrointestinal tract is the major reservoir of S. saprophyticus. In an early study, Latham et al. [ 19] noted that rectal, vaginal, and urethral colonization of S. saprophyticus was associated with UTI caused by this organism. Rupp et al. [ 18] determined that the prevalence of colonization of S. saprophyticus of the urogenital tract among healthy women was 6.9%; the most common site of colonization was the rectum (40%).

Content: the most common site of colonization was the rectum (40%). The urine sediment of a patient with UTI caused by S. saprophyticus has a characteristic microscopic appearance; methods of chemical screening for bacteriuria do not always succeed in diagnosing UTI caused by S. saprophyticus. Even when such an infection occurs in the bladder, comparatively low numbers of colony-forming units (⩽10 5 cfu/mL) are found in the bladder and voided urine. The American Society of Microbiology's Manual of Clinical Microbiology [ 20] recommends a cut-off value of between 10 2 and 10 5 cfu/mL for the diagnosis of significant bacteriuria, but there is not a worldwide consensus for these values. Colonization is more frequent during the summer and fall. Hovelius et al. [ 21] showed that women with S. saprophyticus colonization were more likely to have had a symptomatic UTI during the previous 12 months, to have recently had a menstrual period, and to have had sexual intercourse concurrent with vaginal candidiasis than were women without colonization. None of the women developed symptomatic UTI during the next 6 months. Further support for the existence of a rectal reservoir was the isolation of the same plasmid-identified clone from both urine and stool samples [ 22 ]. | https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/40/6/896/347623 |

These observations are in accord with numerous clinical reports [ 9–17] that UTI caused by S. saprophyticus is associated with recent sexual intercourse and occurs more often during late summer and fall [ 19 ]. The microorganisms colonize the human gastrointestinal tract, particularly during the gastroenteritis season in the summer and fall, and this is probably the reason for this seasonal variation in the incidence of UTI caused by S. saprophyticus.

Abstract
Until the last decade, coagulase-negative staphylococci occurring in urine specimens were usually regarded as a contaminant. In the early 1970s,Le., more than ten years after the original demonstration of Staphylococcus saprophyticus in urine specimens, this species became recognized as a frequent cause of urinary tract infections (UTI). In young women, S. saprophyticus is, after Escherichia coli, the second-most-frequent causative agent of acute UTI. Patients with UTI caused by S. saprophyticus usually present with symptomatic cystitis. Signs and symptoms of renal involvement are also often registered. The urine sediment of a patient with UTI caused by S. saprophyticus has a characteristic appearance microscopically. Chemical screening methods for bacteriuria do not always succeed in diagnosing UTI caused by S. saprophyticus. | https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/6/3/328/334522 |

Content: 1
The article presents an alternative view of the war–state relationship in the post-Second World War era. It does not challenge the logic that the decline in war affected the war–state connection. 2 However, it does not see this change as evidence of atrophy. Instead, it demonstrates how the complexity of war after 1945 led to a deep but more subtle interaction, which had a profound effect on war, the state and society in the western world. While I do not challenge the premise that a range of factors played a role in shaping the connection between war and the state, the precise interaction and relative importance of these forces have altered over time, and this has caused the demands of war on the state to shift in significant ways. In the period under scrutiny in this article, I argue that the role of technology in war increased dramatically because of the nuclear revolution. In this setting, technological development reduced the opportunities for war, but the arms race it generated also brought into being new technologies, and these facilitated new forms of conflict. These developments affected our understanding of war's character and its interaction with the state. Military history provides a rich literature on war and technology, but its focus has tended to be on the importance of technology in helping militaries win wars. 3 In rarer cases, writers have sought to situate war within a broader technological, economic, social and cultural framework. | https://academic.oup.com/ia/article/95/4/765/5513164 |

Regression models show women who reported a lack of cooking skills were 10.4% less likely to meet the F&V recommendations ( P = 0.001). Not liking the taste of healthy foods or finding them too boring (10.2%, P = 0.022), preparation time (5.6%, P = 0.020) or willpower (3.0%, P = 0.021) were also significant. For men, reporting not liking the taste of healthy foods or finding them too boring (6.8%, P = 0.02) was the only significant result. Price, a commonly reported PBHE, was not significantly associated with F&V consumption. Conclusions

Introduction
Improving population diet is a key public health target. Poor dietary intakes have been associated with higher risk of non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and type 2 diabetes, which have large health and economic consequences. 1 James et al. | https://academic.oup.com/jpubhealth/article/39/2/330/3002965 |

Content: 5 Perceptions are included within theoretical models used to explain health behaviours, such as the Theory of Planned Behaviour 6 and the Attitude, Social influence, Self-Efficacy model. 7 These models have been applied to food highlighting perceptions play an important role when explaining dietary choices. 8
Perceived barriers are a key component of the Health Belief Model; a model used to explain why individuals failed to adopt a preventative health measure. 9 A recent meta-analysis has shown perceived barriers and benefits were consistently the strongest predictor of whether an individual adopted a preventative health measure, such as to quit smoking, attend a screening programme, or increase calcium consumption. 10 Perceptions of foods can also influence dietary behaviour. Individuals perceive consumption of fruit and vegetables (F&V) and meat to be important components of a healthy diet. 11 – 13 While most people are aware of what constitutes a healthy diet, surveys of dietary intakes show that many do not eat a diet that meets recommendations for health. 14
Kearney and McElhone investigated perceived barriers towards healthy eating (PBHE) by carrying out a survey in 15 EU member states, with ∼1000 adults from each member state. The most frequently reported perceived barriers were related to time, irregular working hours, and taste preferences. | https://academic.oup.com/jpubhealth/article/39/2/330/3002965 |

This study focuses on F&V consumption as an important component of a healthy diet, playing a protective role in the prevention of coronary heart disease 18 and a range of other diseases. 19

Data
This study used Scottish Health Survey (SHeS) data, a nationally representative survey of Scottish households selected by home postcode using a multi-stage stratified design ( n = 36 922). 20 The survey excludes individuals living in institutions and households without a postcode. 20 Data are collected annually, and in this study data were pooled from 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. The survey is completed by all individuals in the household, with parents completing the survey for children up to the age of 12 years. The SHeS comprises several modules, some of which are only completed by a subsample of the respondents. The main survey includes questions about general health and well-being, F&V consumption, alcohol consumption, smoking, and physical activity. | https://academic.oup.com/jpubhealth/article/39/2/330/3002965 |

Content: All respondents complete the main survey ( n = 36 922) and a subsample complete the knowledge, attitudes and motivations (KAM) module ( n = 8404). The KAM module is completed by adults over 16 years of age and includes questions on PBHE. Participants are asked to select a maximum of 3 from a list of 13 PBHE that they think applied to them or choose ‘none’ as their response. In this study, to reduce multicollinearity amongst variables, the perceived barriers were reduced to nine binary variables by grouping those which were considered similar in nature, as shown in Table 1. Excluding observations with missing data, the final sample size was 8319. Table 1

Content: By limiting terrorism to subnational agents including individuals or a ‘lone wolf’, my definition rules out state terror in which a government terrorizes its own people. The definition, however, does not rule out state-sponsored terrorism where a government clandestinely assists a terrorist group through various means, including supplying weapons, safe haven, intelligence, training, funding, or safe passage ( Mickolus, 1989; Bapat, 2006 ). There was a lot of state sponsorship of terrorism during the final decade of the Cold War with groups such as the Abu Nidal Organization serving as a terrorist group for hire ( Hoffman, 2006 ). 2 The most controversial element of my definition is the victim, since some definitions exclude combatants, so that attacks against an occupying army, such as US forces in Iraq or Afghanistan, are not viewed as terrorism. Generally, an attack against peacekeepers, such as the 23 October 1983 suicide bombing of the US Marines barracks at Beirut International Airport, is considered an act of terrorism. The barracks’ bombing had the political objective of removing peacekeepers from Lebanon, which happened in February 1984. Attacks against US soldiers and their dependents stationed in Germany constitute terrorist incidents, because these targeted individuals were noncombatants when attacked. ‘ Audience’ refers to the collective that terrorists seek to intimidate through their wanton brutality. With sufficient and sustained intimidation, the audience will apply pressures on the besieg | https://academic.oup.com/oep/article/67/1/1/2913015 |

Abstract
The activation of ageism and aging stereotypes in younger and older adults was investigated by manipulating both the valence and the stereotypicality of trait stimuli. Participants completed a lexical decision task in which the stimulus onset asynchronies (SOAs) between the prime and target stimuli were varied to examine the effects of automatic and controlled processing (300 and 2,000 ms, respectively). Both younger and older adults demonstrated strong stereotype activation for elderly stereotypes but relatively weak activation for young stereotypes. Both younger and older adults also demonstrated a positive bias toward older people, which was not moderated by SOA. These findings suggest that younger and older adults do not differ in their accessibility to aging stereotypes or to their age-based biases, which appear to be positive toward elderly people.

When we think about age, we often do so in terms of how we feel toward older adults. As Ronald Reagan demonstrated so adroitly, however, age is a two-way street. When we investigate people's age-related attitudes, it is important to examine attitudes toward both young and old. Although younger adults' attitudes toward older people have received considerable attention, less is known about older adults' attitudes toward young people. The present study addresses this gap by examining both younger and older adults' accessibility of attitudes toward and stereotypes of both age groups. Most studies of age-related attitudes and stereotyping have relied on self-report questionnaires, often referred to as explicit measures (for recent reviews, see Crockett & Hummert, 1987; Hummert, 1999; | https://academic.oup.com/psychsocgerontology/article/57/6/P540/669611 |

People associate both positive and negative traits with older people as a group, although there tend to be more negative trait associations than positive ones ( Hummert et al., 1995 ). Research on the cognitive organization of traits has shown there are multiple stereotypes or subcategories of elderly people, some positive and some negative ( Brewer, Dull, & Lui, 1981; Hummert, Garstka, Shaner, & Strahm, 1994; Schmidt & Boland, 1986 ). Finally, Hummert and colleagues (1994) found a fair degree of overlap in the organization of the subcategories across young, middle-aged, and older adults, although elderly people had the most complex representations of older people, followed by middle-aged and young adults. Thus, research using explicit measures has shown that aging stereotypes are complex, with both positive and negative traits and subtypes being associated with elderly people. | https://academic.oup.com/psychsocgerontology/article/57/6/P540/669611 |

Perceptions of elderly individuals, however, tend to be as positive as perceptions of younger adults, and when age differences are observed those differences have been inconsistent in favoring either age group ( Hummert et al., 1995 ).

Compatible with this assumption, research on ambivalent stereotypes suggests that attitudes toward elderly people may be marked by both positive and negative perceptions ( Fiske, Cuddy, Glick, & Xu, 2002 ). Fiske and colleagues proposed that people's attitudes toward different groups are driven by their perceptions of a group's competence and warmth.

Compatible with this assumption, research on ambivalent stereotypes suggests that attitudes toward elderly people may be marked by both positive and negative perceptions ( Fiske, Cuddy, Glick, & Xu, 2002 ). Fiske and colleagues proposed that people's attitudes toward different groups are driven by their perceptions of a group's competence and warmth. These perceptions lead people to place most groups into one of two categories: ( a) groups they respect for their competence but dislike for their lack of warmth or (b) groups they disrespect for their incompetence but like and patronize for their warmth. It is this second category of groups under which elderly people fall. Fiske and associates found that groups that were similar in terms of perceived frailty (e.g., disabled people, elderly people) were clustered together with regard to perceived incompetence and warmth. In combination, these lines of research suggest that when people think of the concept old, positive associations might be just as likely to come to mind as negative associations. As with other domains of stereotyping (e.g., race, gender), using explicit measures of age-based attitudes and stereotyping can pose problems because participants may be unaware of their beliefs and sentiments or reluctant to reveal any negativity they might feel ( Fazio, Jackson, Dunton, & Williams, 1995; | https://academic.oup.com/psychsocgerontology/article/57/6/P540/669611 |

Content: Perdue and Gurtman concluded from these results that there is an automatic ageism that influences the way people process trait information. Hence, subliminal presentation of the word old facilitated the processing of negative trait information, and subliminal presentation of the word young facilitated the processing of positive information. Perdue and Gurtman suggested that labeling a person as old could automatically activate primarily negative constructs that might then be applied in evaluating that individual. Unfortunately, the interpretation of this study is hampered by Perdue and Gurtman's (1990) selection of personality traits. Intending to examine age-based prejudice, the authors selected extremely positive or negative traits from Anderson's (1968) list of trait valence ratings, but did not consider the issue of trait stereotypicality (i.e., trait descriptiveness). As a result, their stimulus set overrepresented positive traits that have been shown to be more descriptive of younger adults than older adults (e.g., studious, tolerant). Conversely, their set of negative traits overrepresented traits that have been shown to be more descriptive of older adults (e.g., stubborn, forgetful). Because of this confound of valence and stereotypicality, it is unclear whether Perdue and Gurtman's (1990) findings are due solely to age-based prejudice, to the differential stereotypicality of the selected positive (young) and negative (old | https://academic.oup.com/psychsocgerontology/article/57/6/P540/669611 |

Content: 2 In addition, there is a greater tendency to develop left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH); Black patients with mild hypertension have a two-fold higher prevalence of LVH when compared to non-Blacks with comparable blood pressure levels. 3
Despite an increased prevalence of both hypertension and diabetes, 4 the overall risk of coronary artery disease in the Black male population, in Europe, in the Caribbean and to a lesser extent in North America, is lower than in White males. 5 By contrast, Indo-Asians have an excess prevalence of coronary artery disease. This contrast may be due to a multitude of reasons, although many of the traditional risk factors do not fully explain the ethnic differences in cardiovascular disease and stroke. One reason however may be the more favourable lipid profiles, seen particularly in Black males, with higher high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and lower plasma triglycerides. 5
The increased frequency of cerebrovascular disease, renal complications and cardiac hypertrophy in Black patients may be related to a higher incidence of severe hypertension, including malignant hypertension. The West Birmingham Malignant Hypertension Register, for example, revealed that there was an excess of Black patients with malignant hypertension, who also had higher blood pressures and more severe renal impairment at presentation; such patients had a poorer overall median survival and an increased rate of progression to dialysis. 6 Thus, Black patients with malignant hypertension did not do worse simply because they were Black, but they appeared to have poorer blood pressure control and more complications, such as renal damage. | https://academic.oup.com/qjmed/article/92/4/187/1586498 |

Introduction
Oesophageal dysfunction can occur in a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. Symptoms include dysphagia, odynophagia and heartburn. The oesophagus connects the pharynx opposite the sixth cervical vertebra to the cardia, slightly to the left of the eleventh thoracic vertebra. It is fixed above by the cricoid cartilage and below by the diaphragm, the upper end being closed by the pharyngo–oesophageal sphincter and the lower end by the lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS). The muscular coat has outer longitudinal and inner circular layers with Auerbach's plexus in between. Both muscle layers are striated in the upper portion of the oesophagus. At the initiation of swallowing, food is moved voluntarily from the mouth to the pharynx, triggering a primary peristaltic wave in the pharynx and causing the upper oesophageal sphincter (UOS) to relax, allowing the food to enter the oesophagus. Direct stimulation of the oesophagus incites secondary peristalsis which propels the contents forwards to the stomach, usually assisted by gravity. | https://academic.oup.com/rheumatology/article/47/6/746/1785361 |

Students and Staff are the Most Important Stakeholders and Customers on Campus
Content: And they are doing just that because we do not position them as our most important customers. In fact, after six years of attending college, only just over 50% actually graduate from the school they started at. Fifty percent leave and most of them leave because we do not treat them as valued customers. And of the fifty percent which is the national average 76% of them leave specifically for customer service issues ranging from poor service to poor scheduling. While we have a chance, let’s settle an issue once and not for all I am sure. Students are customers. They satisfy a basic economic definition of a customer. They provide payment for services offered by the school. Not always all the services that are promised. Not always services that are done well. | https://academicmaps.blogspot.com/2012/08/students-and-staff-are-most-important.html |

Content: Students are customers. They satisfy a basic economic definition of a customer. They provide payment for services offered by the school. Not always all the services that are promised. Not always services that are done well. But they pay money for services and that makes them a customer. And a customer is someone who exchanges money for goods or services.

Students and Staff are the Most Important Stakeholders and Customers on Campus
Content: But they pay money for services and that makes them a customer. And a customer is someone who exchanges money for goods or services. Call them clients if you will. Call them students if you want but that does not change the fact that they are customers. Nor does it change the reality that they see themselves more and more as customers who are paying the bills., And that makes them demand more and more from a campus community that is too often reluctant to provide the services and hospitality the customers are paying for. Students are our business; our primary business. And they are thus our primary customers. Staff are the next most important stakeholders in customer service. | https://academicmaps.blogspot.com/2012/08/students-and-staff-are-most-important.html |

Content: Additionally, they believe the implementation of Obamacare would be overstepping the federal government’s bounds. Individual Mandate
The most controversial part about the ACA is its “individual mandate” that requires all Americans to purchase health insurance or to pay an annual fine. Many states found this unconstitutional, and five major court rulings were made about the individual mandate. Four of them passed the individual mandate as constitutional but one of them, which was led by Florida amongst 25 other states, found it unconstitutional and referred it to the higher courts and became the National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius. In June 2012, the National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius upheld the individual mandate as constitutional. The Supreme Court’s justification was that the government had the ability to regulate taxation and since not purchasing healthcare only meant paying more tax, the ACA was constitutional. Contraceptive Access
One of the policies of the ACA was requiring employers to guarantee health insurance to women that would include obtaining birth control. However, in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby 2014, the Supreme Court ruled against this provision and allowed Hobby Lobby, a Christian chain of hobby shops to not have to follow this provision; basically, the health insurance they provide does not have to include birth control. Delayed Employer Mandate
Moderate conservatives have voiced concerns over the fact that the ACA allows employers to delay implementing provisions by a year (2015/2016) but individuals are not allowed to do the same. | https://acahealthcare.wordpress.com/key-questions/why-was-the-aca-constitutionally-controversial/ |

The History of Salsa and Hot Sauce
Posted November 30, 2015 Acapulcos Admin
One of the best things about any party is the inevitable bowl of chips and the little containers of goodness surrounding it. In these containers is our favorite salsa dips. This little bowls might mild, spicy hot, green, black bean, avocado, fruit, or any of the many other variations of the delicious dip. If you go to a Mexican restaurant you will probably get more than your fair share of chips and salsa, and you’ll be glad you did. Origins of Salsa
The origins of Salsa (which literally means sauce in Spanish) can be traced as far back as the civilizations of the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas. The Spaniards first recorded encountering salsa around in the early 1500s. However the inhabitants of Central America had been mixing up their favorite salsa dishes for many centuries before that. The Aztecs were one of the first peoples to domesticate the tomato. Their original sauces were a mix of chiles, tomatoes, squash, and beans, among other indigents. The Aztecs passed these traditions on to later cultures in Central America and eventually the United States. | https://acapulcos.net/the-history-of-salsa-and-hot-sauce/ |

Content: Also, this method has serious problems – expectancy effects and atypical individuals. Expectancy effects mean that a researcher can have his own beliefs and expectations that can influence the whole results. What else, it can lead to misrepresenting in participant’s descriptions. Also, if you choose atypical individuals, it can lead to strange or even poor results which will not make your research very productive. 3.Survey Method
This method includes answering questions through interviews or questionnaires. After participants of the survey answer them, you, as a researcher, have to describe all answers. Also, while you make questions make sure they are clear and understandable. So, finally, you know How to Write a Descriptive Research Design but also don’t forget that the main and whole idea of descriptive research methods is to DESCRIBE things or observations but not to make any summaries. And sadly, but in many studies, researchers forget this fundamental thing and start suggesting and demonstrating own thoughts without any scientific background. And seriously, nothing could be worse than this. | https://acasestudy.com/descriptive-research-design-definition-methods-and-examples/ |

What is Exploratory Research?
Types of Exploratory Research
Advantages and Disadvantages of Exploratory Research
Content: it can be characterized by specificity, target nature and controllability of information gathering processes. As for disadvantages, they are: exploratory research generally utilizes small sample sizes and, thus, findings are typically not generalizable to the population at large; the exploratory nature of the research inhibits an ability to make definitive conclusions about the findings. They provide insight but not definitive conclusions; the research process underpinning exploratory studies is flexible but often unstructured, leading to only tentative results that have limited value to decision-makers; design lacks rigorous standards applied to methods of data gathering and analysis because one of the areas for exploration could be to determine what method or methodologies could best fit the research problem. Consequently, exploratory research designs, unlike the descriptive research or casual, are often used to establish an understanding of how best to proceed in studying an issue or what methodology would effectively apply to gathering information about the issue. | https://acasestudy.com/the-purpose-of-exploratory-research-design/ |

Content: Loss of crops due to pests and animals
The crops need to be protected from pests and animals. Every year, farmers suffer heavy loss of revenue due to crop loss caused by the activities of pests, insects and animals. To protect their crops, farmers, therefore, use pesticides, insecticides and so on. They also use electrical fences to safeguard their crops from cows, elephants and other animals. 6. Loss of production due to litigation
Another peculiar problem in agricultural production is that there is always litigation between the farmers over the land territory and other such issues. As a result, they may have to spend lot of time, money and efforts to win legal battles. This affects the time available for production and thereby affects output. 7. Small-scale production
In India, the number of small and marginal farmers is larger than the number of big landlords. | https://accountlearning.com/agricultural-goods-characteristics-problems-faced-in-production/ |

In India, the number of small and marginal farmers is larger than the number of big landlords. The small and marginal farmers hardly own a few acres of land.

The farmers follow the conventional methods of production which affect the yield. They do not have access to the latest machines and equipment because they cannot afford to have these. 9.

The larger the competition the lesser will be the profits and all excess profits, will be wiped off when competition is keener.

From the economic point of view, it drives every one to be efficient and economic, avoiding wastage. Perfect competition is indispensable for the efficient working of the free economy which is unplanned and uncontrolled. According to George Halm, perfect competition

Code of Conduct for Law Enforcement
Police, and those in law enforcement involved in election security, hold a position of public trust. Their fundamental duties are to protect lives and property and to ensure that laws are enforced. In most countries operating under the rule of law, the public expects the police to be impartial, fair and responsible in the enforcement of public order and the laws of the country. These principles should be reflected in the institutional values of the law enforcement agencies, such as this one from the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation: Rigorous obedience to constitutional principles ensures that individually and institutionally we always remember that constitutional guarantees are more important than the outcome of any single interview, search for evidence or investigation. Respect for the dignity of all whom we protect reminds us to wield law enforcement powers with restraint and to recognize the natural human tendency to be corrupted by power and to become callous in its exercise. Fairness and compassion ensure that we treat everyone with the highest regard for constitution, civil and human rights. | https://aceproject.org/main/english/ei/eie12c1.htm |

Content: How Does a Pandemic Affect Mental Health? Along with a physical health crisis, a pandemic can lead to an uptick in stress and anxiety and put extreme duress on mental wellbeing. Once a pandemic occurs, people may become increasingly concerned about getting infected with a disease. In the case of COVID-19, government officials have recommended social distancing to help stop the spread of the coronavirus. Yet, social distancing can lead to emotional distancing and may cause some people to separate themselves from others altogether. When this happens, people may feel exceedingly isolated and trapped, leading to severe depression, anxiety, and stress, and feelings of hopelessness, sadness, and emptiness. A pandemic can also result in widespread panic and fear. People may stockpile non-perishable foods, clean drinking water, and other emergency supplies. This can lead to shortages of items at convenience stores and supermarkets, as well as an increase in stress and anxiety as people become overly concerned about these shortages. The uncertainty around when a pandemic will end can severely affect a population’s mental health as well. | https://achievetms.com/how-can-a-pandemic-affect-an-individuals-mental-health/ |

Content: When this happens, people may feel exceedingly isolated and trapped, leading to severe depression, anxiety, and stress, and feelings of hopelessness, sadness, and emptiness. A pandemic can also result in widespread panic and fear. People may stockpile non-perishable foods, clean drinking water, and other emergency supplies. This can lead to shortages of items at convenience stores and supermarkets, as well as an increase in stress and anxiety as people become overly concerned about these shortages. The uncertainty around when a pandemic will end can severely affect a population’s mental health as well. A pandemic may seem endless, and the longer it persists, the more severe its impact on a population’s mental health can be. If people try to ignore the stress and anxiety they experience during a pandemic; their symptoms may escalate over time. As a result, these people may be susceptible to stress and anxiety that causes fatigue, difficulty sleeping, and other physical side effects. For people who already had a mental health diagnosis such as major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) prior to the coronavirus pandemic, the impact of COVID-19 can be even more acute. | https://achievetms.com/how-can-a-pandemic-affect-an-individuals-mental-health/ |

Content: Although nearly 70 percent of U.S. high school seniors enroll in college within two years of high school graduation, only about 57 percent complete degrees within six years. Outcomes for minority students are even less encouraging: Only 36 percent of black young adults and 43 percent of Latinos who enroll in college complete degree programs in a timely fashion. Poverty affects educational outcomes even more than race. Students from the highest income families are almost eight times as likely as those from the lowest income families to earn a bachelor’s degree by age 24. Illinois’ educational attainment gap is one of the nation’s worst. Of 100 Illinois students who enter 9th grade, only 76 graduate from high school, 42 enter college, and only 28 remain in college beyond freshman year. Illinois’ white students are 28 percent more likely to go to college than blacks or Latinos. College participation for Illinois’ low-income students has dropped 5 percent in the past 10 years. Only 52 percent of Chicago Public Schools alumni go on to college, most who do choose colleges mismatched to their academic profiles and with poor retention rates. | https://acifund.org/peer-mentoring-program/ |

Is Capella University Respected by Employers? By Ryan Smith April 22, 2021
There are many reasons why some people choose to go to online schools. One of those is for them to get their degrees at their own pace. Another is for them to have better jobs. However, there is a stigma attached to degrees from online schools. This is why some employers may not respect or honor them. Many online schools are running these days, and one of them is Capella University. Its name is one of those that are usually brought up when people are talking about their online school options. Although it is quite well-known, some cannot help but wonder whether or not it’s a real school that is offering programs that employers will take seriously. | https://acollegekid.com/capella-university/ |

So, is Capella University respected by employers? Capella University is very well respected by employers, especially those who know that not all online schools are diploma mills. The online school is regionally accredited. It means that its programs and degrees are recognized as they meet standards, just like most traditional schools. Many online schools have campuses and learning centers. | https://acollegekid.com/capella-university/ |

Content: What’s more, they think that obtaining a degree online is free of trouble. They believe that it’s nothing like getting a degree in the traditional way in which a student will have to work hard for two or four years. Well, no one can blame some employers for not taking online degrees seriously. However, it’s because it is very much likely that what they have in their minds are diploma mills and not online schools with accreditation, just like traditional schools. Not a Diploma Mill
On the internet, there are websites that people can visit if they want to get their hands on degrees. They are referred to as diploma mills. Also, sometimes known as degree mills, these are businesses whose products are degrees in exchange for money. There are a couple of things that you have to know about diploma mills: The degrees that they offer are meaningless.

Content: Therefore, while cohesion is crucial for high-performance teamwork, it has to be carefully managed and regularly offset by the input of ideas from outside sources. Coach the team as a team, not as a group of individuals
Usually, human resource departments focus solely on individual skill development, rather than the growth of a team. This approach will not get you a high-performing team, but a drastically inferior high-performing group. Mike Levison has a few recommendations: Have regular one-on-one meetings with your team members. Use them to discuss an individual’s habits and behaviors and how they affect the team. You should hold these meetings off-site, where no other members can eavesdrop. If you’re dealing with less confident team members, ask for written feedback instead. Provide thoughtful feedback on small but important things, like the way the individual in question faces other members, how much they interrupt others, and how well they listen. You are a leader, so be an example of the behavior you expect everyone to follow. | https://activecollab.com/blog/collaboration/high-performing-teams |

Make Real Work Happen!
Content: However, if their desires, preferences, and behavioral styles are too far apart, communication is constantly poor and there is a lot of uncertainty during cooperation, that team is destined to fail. Evaluating an individual’s contribution
Since the team has shared responsibility, it is very difficult to determine if an individual has performed above or under expectations. Sometimes, this issue can result in employee dissatisfaction: if the individual has over-performed, they will be unhappy because they haven’t been rewarded properly; if they have underperformed, their teammates will be discontent and might mutiny against their lack of contribution and extra work they have to handle. There is NO proper method to measure an individual’s performance in the team, which is why many companies are using 360 reviews. "Analysis paralysis"
Analysis paralysis occurs when a situation is overanalyzed to the point where a person cannot make a decision nor take action. A sudden stop in decision-making can cost your company time, money, and, in certain cases, even reputation. In well-balanced and functional teams it doesn’t and shouldn’t occur often, but when it does - it should be resolved as quickly as possible.

Content: Meanwhile, politically powerful interests in slave holding Union states, Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland, and Delaware, threatened to leave the Union if Lincoln freed the slaves. As the War progressed, Lincoln came to see Emancipation as both a political and military strategy. To free the slaves in rebellious territories would take a crucial labor force from the Confederacy and bring it to the Union. After an indecisive but crucial battle at Antietam, Lincoln used the moment to issue the Emancipation Proclamations on September 22, 1862. This first Proclamation was an ultimatum to the South that as of January 1, 1863 all slaves in any areas under rebellion would be freed. The second Emancipation Proclamation was indeed issued on January 1, 1863 and completed the promise by freeing all slaves in all rebellious areas. The proclamation exempted the Border States and areas already under Union Control. It also said that African Americans would be able to serve in the Union military. The Emancipation Proclamation was a major turning point in the Civil War in that it changed the aim of the war from preserving the Union to being a fight for human freedom, shifted a huge labor force that could benefit the Union war effort from the South to the North and forestalled the potential recognition of the Confederacy by England or France. The Emancipation Proclamation was a major step on the path to the abolition of slavery that started with the slaves taking the initiative to escape from their owners in the first days of the war and was completed with the ratification of the 13th Amendment. | https://activeminds.com/topics/Emancipation_Proclamation.html |

How to Create a Good Mental Health Group Name
A good mental health group name can promote positive growth for both mental health professionals and those who need mental health support. Keep the following tips in mind to create a strong name: Use positive language. Mental health groups, whether professional or for those seeking care, should keep a positive tone. Positivity shows acceptance and understanding rather than disapproval. A positive name can help defy the stigmas associated with mental health and mental health treatment. Debunk negative stereotypes. There are a lot of misconceptions and misunderstandings regarding mental health within the general public. | https://actuallygoodteamnames.com/mental-health-team-names/ |

This is a modal window. This modal can be closed by pressing the Escape key or activating the close button. Accenture debuted a sweeping brand campaign, declaring "let there be change," along with a new company purpose, "to deliver on the promise of technology and human ingenuity," created in partnership with Accenture Interactive-owned Droga5. The consulting behemoth says it is tripling its annual media spend to $90 million with the launch of this campaign. It includes the 30-second anthemic spot from Droga5, "Make Change Work For You," that implores companies to embrace change both "seismic" and "small," as well as three 15-second ads. The creative debuted on Accenture's internal and external digital properties, and includes placements across TV, online and social media in the Americas, Europe and Asia. Amy Fuller, Accenture chief marketing and communications officer, tells Ad Age that the campaign is "definitely" the largest from the company in the past decade. "We had been getting very precise with our media buying, because we can," Fuller says. " But we found we were under-leveraging our brand, which is the reason for being in higher-profile places. | https://adage.com/article/agency-news/accenture-declares-let-there-be-change-sweeping-new-brand-campaign-droga5/2287716 |

Content: She says the reality of today is that companies can't just undergo "a digital transformation and then you’re finished," which is how "let there be change" was born. According to Accenture, the company's own business is now 70 percent in digital, cloud and security. She says Droga5 has been involved with the planning of the campaign since it began a year ago. Since they are both in the same family, Fuller says she was able to divulge "really confidential" information to Droga5 that "clients are not always comfortable sharing." "Accenture’s work covers almost every category of business on Earth," adds Duncan Marshall, founding partner at Droga5. " There was a great amount of groundwork and education to be had before strategy and creative began, certainly more I think than in any campaign I’ve ever been involved in. We worked closely with a wide number of Accenture’s leadership in all areas of their business to get at the heart of what makes them them. In terms of the involvement from the CEO level down, it was full and collaborative." Droga5 was acquired by Accenture Interactive, Accenture's agency business, last April for the price, Ad Age estimates, of $475 million. Accenture said last year it invested $1.5 billion in acquisitions, plus nearly $900 million in training and development and approximately $900 million in research and development. | https://adage.com/article/agency-news/accenture-declares-let-there-be-change-sweeping-new-brand-campaign-droga5/2287716 |

Content: Alternatively, choices are the means by which he dissipates his power. The outcome, case by case, will often turn on whether he perceives his risk in power terms and takes account of what he sees before he makes his choice. A President is so uniquely situated and his power so bound up with the uniqueness of his place, that he can count on no one else to be perceptive for him" (150). Place in the Literature
Like Madison (1787), #10 and Truman (1951), Neustadt uses a pluralist view to understand politics. In the pluralist world, competing factions mobilize and counter-mobilize, persuading and arguing until policy ultimately arrives at what the typical citizen would want. ( For critiques of pluralism, see the summary of Truman.) Kernell (1997) later argued that presidents have shifted from Neustadt's bargaining model to a more confrontational tactic that he calls "going public." Argument
Presidents must persuade/bargain, not command
The president's primary power is to persuade and bargain, not to command. When a president has to resort to commanding people, he is showing weakness. Commands only work in very special circumstances. " | https://adambrown.info/p/notes/neustadt_presidential_power |

Presidents must persuade/bargain, not command
The president's primary power is to persuade and bargain, not to command. When a president has to resort to commanding people, he is showing weakness. Commands only work in very special circumstances. " The essence of a President's persuasive task is to convince such men that what the White House wants of them is what they ought to do for their sake and on their authority" (30). Shared, not separated powers
The American system is one of shared, not separated, powers (see Madison 1787, #51 ). The president is only one of several masters of the bureaucracy, and even the White House staff have independent sources of power (34-6). People in all positions cannot do much without persuading others to help them, and this applies even to the president. However, more people need favors from the president than from any other person. | https://adambrown.info/p/notes/neustadt_presidential_power |

Four positive results of the New deals are regulating the stock markets (SEC, Securities and Exchanged Commission), employing the American people, guaranteeing money back if banks close (FDIC, Federal Depositors Insurance Corporation), building for the public (PWA, Public Works Administration), and also to aid farmers with controlled prices (AAA, Agricultural Adjustment Act). Three negative criticisms about the New Deal are that many people (especially the Republicans) didn’t believe the government should be involved with the various programs, people started to demand more, and heavy taxes on the rich to provide equality in the incomes (leaning more toward socialism??) Honestly, I really don’t know about both, yet I am leaning more toward the WW ll idea. If we didn’t enter the war and stayed isolationism, we the American people will still be barely surviving with the New Deal. The war brought more services to be available, and it brought more people to fight in the war. Reply

Benefits
1. Psychologically the New Deal helped Americans because they felt like the government was doing something to help their lives and that the government was on their side. 2. It expanded the government spending and power

The civil rights movement was successful because although they did gain rights to vote and where less discriminated but still where treated very unequal still and where still discriminated against. Reply

The civil rights movement was successful for multiple reasons. Minorities were given multiple rights such as voting,poll taxes were abolished, and desegregation in schools ended with the Brown vs Board of Education

The civil rights movement was very successful because of the desegregation of public schools, passed the civil rights act, and more black in white school, and also the voting rights for black men. Reply
