...As people we all have a social identity, to me it is defined as the way we interact with our fellow humans, to our colleagues all the way down to the group of friends we associate with. It contributes to an explanation of all of our behaviors. There is a sense of group conformity to certain rules that are placed amongst by each other, this affects how we define ourselves within the group and how others define us. In a group like this there is constant competition because of the inherent human need to be on top, which in turn creates new conformities to be followed. An important aspect in our social identity is our relationship with technology. We use it to identify ourselves in different ways and another way to compete. With the rapid advancement of technology there is always the next best product out, leaving the availability to always try to be on top. Identifying ourselves with technology seems like a far out idea but is one in which we have brought upon ourselves. When we see someone with an ipad we see it as a sign of luxury and wealth. Having this product you are saying to the world that you are worth the name this product gives, and if two people have the same product the next step up is who has the better accessories. It is in this way that technology has become a social norm, where before it was only the privileged with these advancements we now see it everywhere. This where we draw the social norms from in which we feel compelled to comply with. Having social normalities...

...against humanity and war crimes.” The LRA originated in Uganda in the 1980’s to serve Kony’s main motive to overthrow the Ugandan government. However, in 2006 the organization dispersed in other countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, and the Central African Republic because of the Juba Peace Talks movement. It is estimated that Kony’s LRA killed approximately 2,500 people and holds about 4,000 members, most of which are children. “Its members are known for hacking off the lips and ears of their victims, looting villages and burning huts, and stealing clothes and medicine from the communities they terrorize” Through a structural funtionalist’s perspective, the focus is geared more towards the adherance to a normative belief system. They believe in an individual blame; that is deviant behavior is a result of inadequate socialization. Inadequate socialization accounts for any possible factor including education, type of authoritative system, economical background, and social restrictions. As a structural functionalist theorist, one may say that the probable factors that led tyrants such as Kony to their deviant ways is the fact that they were not exposed to positive influences or other resources which, in turn, narrowed their mindset to only thinking that the only way to progress to a higher level in society is to obtain manpower in any way possible. Psychologically, he was possibly feeling a sense of powerlessness due to his discontentment...

...Radio Frequency Identification Uses in Inventory Management By: Jared Farnsworth, LAT In the fall of two thousand two I was introduced to radio frequency identification or RFID while I was doing my advanced individual training (AIT) for the military in Fort Lee, Virginia. At this time RFID was still in its infancy and not too many people were using RFID at this time. Not really too much was known about the benefits that it provided for inventory management either. The military was in the beginning stages of development and found it useful to link all of the databases at every military installation to make inventory control that much more reliable. Throughout my career in the military I used the RFID system quite a bit, mainly for inventory management. I used it for the control of medical equipment for the Army hospital that I was attached to. Everything had to be documented since all the supplies were highly vital to the proper running of the hospital. Other uses for the RFID system are for loss prevention, tracking inventory replenishment, managing work-in progress, and the removal of production waste through lean management. However certain problems do exist with the RFID system such as misuses and privacy issues. Over the next few paragraphs the benefits and problems with the RFID system will be discussed. “Theft and loss prevention and price markdown management are two of the most promising uses for radio frequency...

...Preface A well-developed knowledge of clinical microbiology is critical for the practicing physician in any medical field. Bacteria, viruses, and protozoans have no respect for the distinction between ophthalmology, pediatrics, trauma surgery, or geriatric medicine. As a physician you will be faced daily with the concepts of microbial disease and antimicrobial therapy. Microbiology is one of the few courses where much of the "minutia" is regularly used by the practicing physician. This book attempts to facilitate the learning of microbiology by presenting the information in a clear and entertaining manner brimming with memory aids. Our approach has been to: 4) Create a conceptual, organized approach to the organisms studied so the student relies less on memory and more on logical pathophysiology. The text has been updated to include current information on rapidly developing topics, such as HIV and AIDS (vaccine efforts and all the new anti-HIV medications), Ebola virus, Hantavirus, E. coli outbreaks, Mad Cow Disease, and brand-new antimicrobial antibiotics. The mnemonics and cartoons in this book do not intend disrespect for any particular patient population or racial or ethnic group but are solely presented as memory devices to assist in the learning of a complex and important medical subject. We welcome suggestions for future editions. 1) Write in a conversational style for rapid assimilation. 2) Include numerous figures serving as "visual memory tools" and summary charts...
