...useful to ensure success: * use only healthy, vigorous source plants; * use the most appropriate method, growth stage, and timing for the plant; * protect propagation material from heat and from drying; use the material as quickly as possible after it is prepared; * give newly propagated plants extra attention and care during their establishment phase; TECHNIQUES: The demonstration will focus on techniques for vegetative propagation of plants. Plants propagated using these methods have the same characteristics as the parent or source plant since vegetative material is used and no genetic recombination is involved. The key techniques for propagation that will be highlighted are:leaf cuttings, stem cuttings, simple layering, and air layering. Although many of the techniques that we’ll cover today can be used for a range of different types of plants, it is important to know that some plants root better at a particular stage of growth, at a specific...

...SUTRA 11 Now we are going to discuss smriti, which basically means memory. The sutra says anubhuta vishaya asampramoshah smritih. Anubhuta is the first wor, and anubhuta is translated as experienced. Experience in Sanskrit is called anubhuti, so anubhuta is called experienced, an experience that you have already experienced. Anu means something that follows or follows upon and bhuta means the element. So anubhuta means that which follows the matter field when consciousness or your personal awareness interacts with the matter field and is the tangible experience. Experience is a result of consciousness interacting with the matter fields, and that is anubhuta. Vishaya is an object of the experience that you have, so in general, they are the five matter fields, but they can also be another pattern of intelligence. One samskara can even have another samskara as its object of experience. Like the drink that I am consuming is a pattern of intelligence, and the personality that’s trying to enjoy it is also a pattern of intelligence. So when you interact with an object, an experience is created out of it. If you dissect everything and look into it, you will find just five matter fields interacting with five matter fields but in reality there are just two different patterns of intelligence interacting with each other, not necessarily just five matter fields. . Asampramoshah means kept inside, not letting go or allowing to escape. That is called smritih, memory. ...

...Total quality management in production: In pharmaceutical factory raw material arrives at the warehouse where it is stored in clean environment Basically there are two types of raw material is used in the production they are: 1) Inactive raw material 2) Active raw material Inactive and active Raw Material: Inactive raw material is used to increase the mass of the medicine .This material does not causes any effect on illness or disease. It increases the size of the tablet in order to make it digestible. On the other hand active raw material is used for illness and therapy. In pharmaceutical industry raw material is imported from foreign countries. At he time when raw material is stored in warehouse a sticker named quarantine is displayed on it in order to show that it has not undergone any treatment. Before production begins a sample is drawn from quarantine material which is passed from tests at quality assurance if it passes the test an analysis number is allotted on it. After this line clearance which is given by quality assurance that the material is available for production. Quality assurance chemists and pharmacists check the temperature and humidity in the production areas where machinery is situated along with all others, quality assurance gives line clearance to start the production and quality control department will check it at every stage. Two standards of productions are implemented during the whole production process i.e. USP (United States Pharmacopeia)...

...The heavily issue of globalization is made extremely clear in the travels of a T-shirt in the global economy. Pietra Rivoli talks about the politics and human element behind globalization by telling her life story of her t-shirt. Through the story of her t-shirt, Revoli shows how supportive globalization often reduce and unrecognizable issues behind international trade environmental problems caused by factories and industries. Pollution is the introduction of harmful impurities, impure, unclean and polluted substance into the environment. Its existence is created and mostly caused by human actions, and the outcome of this situation can end up in natural disasters. Industrial waste poured into rivers have led to dramatic changes and problems in our societies. Most people use to swim and have a good time in river in their neighborhood, but they cant do all of this again because the water have been polluted with poisonous chemicals wasted in the river. Big companies and industries pour unwanted, poisonous chemicals into rivers to save money for the company. As a result of this, the chemicals end up in neighborhoods and the water starts to smell, block up nose and spots on both adults and children. Employees who work in theses companies are exposed to all kinds of chemicals and the place adhesive smell horrible like burned plastic, which end up in bleeding of noise. The workers who work at these companies sometimes even end up losing their jobs because they cant continue...

...MKTG305 Unit 1 DB October 5, 2012 GO Green Air Purifiers The product that I choose was Ionic air purifier. Ionic air purifiers are a health risk; because it simply produces ozone, and that is a known human poison. According to the U.S. EPA, ozone can cause several major problem in a huma-begin. These problems consist of severe respiratory problems; vex asthma; substantial short-term decreases in lug capacity of fifteen to over twenty percent in some healthy adults;as well as inflammation of the lung-tissue. It also leads to emergency room visits and hospital admissions; and between ten to twenty percent of all summertime respiratory related hospital visits in the northeastern U.S. are associated with ozone contamination. It will also weaken your body immune response defenses; therefore, making us we the people be more vulnerable to respiratory infections; such as pneumonia and bronchitis (Ozone, 2012). The main focus of a market is simply to promote there products, and to achieve a better outcome then other leading brands. The sad thing is when customer enters a store to buy a product; they instantly think that there getting more for their money; as well as improving there situation. But in fact there making their situation worse by harming the people around them; as well as the environment with all the harsh chemicals that's in the product that the brought.(Green Clean Certified, 2012).

...Current Business Practices Audit Kimberly Johnson, Richard Siemienczuk, Karen Graham, and Chad Smestad MGT/360 December 3, 2012 Vicki Bauer Current Business Practices Audit The learning team conducted an audit of Riordan Manufacturing’s current business practices at its processing plants located in California, Georgia, Michigan, and China. The business sustainability worksheets used to complete the evaluation aided the team in locating common areas of non-sustainable practices relating to land, water, and air pollution. The three non-sustainable practices evaluated further are solid waste, and hazardous waste causing land pollution, hazardous waste causing water pollution, and gaseous waste causing air pollution. These areas are the most harmful to the immediate population, which includes the plant workers and the communities. Solid Waste and Hazardous Waste Causing Land Pollution One of the non-sustainable practices is adding to land pollution. Currently, off-spec materials are sent to the landfill (Apollo, 2012). In addition to this, scrap plastic managed as waste goes to the landfill (Apollo). The biggest problem is that plastic is not biodegradable. When plastic and off-spec products are sent to the landfill, breakdown occurs but at minimal rates and these take longer to biodegrade over time. To remain compliant with government regulations, Riordan Manufacturing is required to identify hazardous waste generated each month if it exceeds 2,200 pounds (Apollo...

...than 80000 Million Rs in debt with very little cashflow. So what went wrong? 1) Addressed the wrong market initially? It targeted the business class initially with fewer economy seats in its planes. Result: Empty business class seats and mounting losses. Under current economic conditions in India, there was more demand for economy coaches and lower cost airline tickets. He failed to understand the mentality of the mass. 2) Acquiring Air Deccan: In order to rectify its position, king fisher acquired a low cost/profitable economy carrier named Air Deccan and re-launched it as Kingfisher Red. This acquisition came at a heavy cost and besides, the CEO of Air Deccan Lt Gopi was set aside and the operating principles/philosophies were changed. As you can see, ever since Air Deccan was acquired in 2007, Kingfisher had 1000+ crores of loss during each year of its operation. 3) There were reports of how overstaffed Kingfisher was and with the addition of Kingfisher Red, it only increased! 4) After acquiring Air Deccan, Kingfisher hiked up ticket prices resulting in more empty seats and higher operation cost.

...environment. The subject in this paper is how Riordan Manufacturing will identify their nonsustainable practices, federal regulations, mandatory, and voluntary actions necessary to implement a successful sustainability plan. Nonsustainable Business Practices The business practice audits brought to light three nonsustainable practices. The three practices highlighted by the audit include wasted energy from the plants, the use of toxic cleaning solvents, and spilled ink. These three business practices can be very harmful to the environment. Burning fossil fuels for energy creates gases such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, and volatile organic compounds. These gases cause air pollution. They can cause several kinds of air pollution, particular matter, smog, and ozone (New Energy Alternative, 2008). Air pollution can travel thousands of miles and can harm areas that burn fossil fuels sparingly. The next nonsustainable practice is the use of toxic cleaning solvents. The release of toxic chemicals from the spent cleaners can cause damage to the ozone layer. This contributes to the greenhouse effect that causes global warming. Global warming raises the earth’s temperature and can cause many environmental problems. Some of those are polar ice caps melting, fires, wild fires, increased hurricanes,...

...subsidence is the extraction of freshwater from the earth. Once the water is extracted, the land below will start to shift, therefore changing the lands natural formation. When this occurs, the ocean in certain regions will rise due to the ground levels dropping lower than normal. Storms such as tornados, hurricanes, avalanches, mud slides and lighting storms that all increasing in regularity and size due to the unstable atmospheric conditions and to the rising of warm moist air being mixed with cold air which causes tropical storms such as hurricanes and tornados. As in the current tornados in Oklahoma that have occurred repeatedly. Warm air in the mountains will cause avalanches and mud slides and promotes other increasing problems for certain cultures. People 50 years ago who lived in the areas where these issues were monitored as possible threats, now worry endlessly sue to the increase and frequent occurrences of such horrific problems on a more regular basis due to global warming temperature rising from air pollutions (Davidson, 2006). Due to greenhouse gases, both natural and anthropogenic meaning manmade, produce harmful vapors such as fossil fuels which...

...Christopher Burge Global Warming Global warming is a grave issue that is affecting not only the United States, but the whole world as well. Various international strategies need to be implemented so that these issues can be tackled. If taken seriously, the issue of global warming can not only be overcome, it can be prevented as well. Poll conducted in my community- family members, friends, and coworkers- asking if they felt whether or not global warming was a problem or not or undecided: Two examples of how global warming if affecting the life of our communities: * Global warming is already leading to more violent storms and less predictable weather patterns. According to the Pew Center on Global Warming, since 1995, only two years have not had above average hurricane activity. The overall number of tropical storms has not increased, but there are more storms strong enough to be called hurricanes. We will probably continue to get bigger storms, which will do more damage to coastal areas. * Global warming will have drastic effects on local ecosystems. Most plants and animals are adapted for a certain environment. Generally, each species does well when the temperature is in a certain range, and the seasons work in a regular way. As things like temperature and seasonal precipitation shift, less robust plants and animals are not going to be able to adapt quickly enough. This will result in widespread extinction. Three facts that are relevant to global...

...problems we face worldwide is air pollution. Air pollution is the presence in the atmosphere of any substance at a concentration great enough to produce an undesirable effect on humans, animals, vegetation, or materials, or to significantly alter the natural balance of any ecosystem. Air pollutants can be solids, liquids, or gases, and can have local, regional, and global impacts. One form of air pollution is photochemical smog. "Smog" is a contraction of the words "smoke" and "fog," and was originally used to describe air pollution caused by coal burning in London. Urban smog is photochemical because many of the chemicals found in urban air are formed by chemical reactions driven by sunlight. Among the many air pollutants in urban smog that are produced by photochemical reactions, one of the most abundant is ozone, O3 . Ground level ozone and other photochemical pollutants are formed in urban atmospheres by the reactions of oxides of nitrogen (mainly NO and NO 2 ) in the presence of hydrocarbons. In CHE 133 we learned about combustion reactions. A combustion reaction is a type of redox reaction in which a combustible material combines with an oxidizer to form oxidized products and generate heat. In a combustion reaction oxygen combines with another compound to form carbon dioxide and water. Oxides of nitrogen are byproducts of combustion processes. At the high temperatures generated during combustion, some of the N 2 and O 2 in air is converted to oxides of nitrogen...

...ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR EXTRA CREDIT ASSIGNMENT ZHONGYI ZHANG ID:31062818 25 JAN 2011 A discussion about organization chart features in EVA AIR Corporation Here is the Organization Chart about the EVA AIR Corporation. I have worked in the Cargo Operation Department in EVA AIR Corporation for about one year. As we all know, each air corporation has strict articles and rules. They are made for the safety for each flight procedure. The whole company cannot make any mistakes. If it made, there may cause the death of hundreds of lives and the waste of billions of dollars. So one of my supervisor even told me that the working in the air corporation is not only for economic interests but also for conscience. Let me get down to discuss the features of some key elements in the EVA AIR that the managers use to design their organization chart. The Departmentalization is the first element I want to explain. The EVA AIR is an multinational air corporation in the world. It has three types to departmentalize their division and dept. One is the most popular way by functions performed. In most people's view, air corporation make profits by the passenger services. Before I joined the EVA AIR group, I also believed that it was true. However, after I worked in EVA AIR Cargo, I found that air corporation makes its profits mostly from their cargo services. In order to make the maximum profit of each flight, i.e.,let the plane to carry the maximum weight...

...A new economic analysis published in the highly prestigious American Economic Review has made a damming assessment of the costs of pollution from fossil fuel industries, and concludes that coal is doing more harm to the US economy than good – and that doesn't take into account its climate impact. The paper by respected economists Nicholas Muller, Robert Mendelsohn (Yale) and William Nordhaus (Yale), models the physical and economic consequences of emissions of six major pollutants (sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds, ammonia, fine particulate matter, and coarse particulate matter) from the country's 10,000 pollution sources. It is an update of a previous study concluded in 2009. It concludes that the "gross external damages" (GED) from the sickness and death caused by the pollution, is larger than their value add in several key industries – coal- and oil-fired electricity plants, solid waste combustion, sewage treatment, stone quarrying, and marinas! The most damning assessment is of coal, which is fingered for about $53 billion in damages a year. This estimate does not include climate change and uses a conservative estimate of health risks. The authors say that coal's damages bill ranges from 0.8 to 5.6 times value added. Instead of being cheap and affordable, the study finds coal is likely the costliest source of electricity. Which is not to suggest that it immediately be shut down, they say, but that it should be understood that for every one-unit...
