...Cancer KEY POINTS Biology of Cancer Cancer encompasses a broad range of diseases of multiple causes that can arise in any cell of the body capable of evading regulatory controls of proliferation and differentiation. Two major dysfunctions present in the process of cancer are (1) defective cell proliferation (growth) and (2) defective cell differentiation. Cancer cells usually proliferate at the same rate of the normal cells of the tissue from which they arise. However, cancer cells divide indiscriminately and haphazardly and sometimes produce more than two cells at the time of mitosis. Through differentiation, cells become capable of performing only specific functions. o Proto-oncogenes are normal cell genes that regulate normal cell processes to keep them in their mature, functioning state. o When proto-oncogenes are mutated, they can begin to function as oncogenes (tumor-inducing genes). Tumors can be classified as benign or malignant. o Benign neoplasms are well-differentiated. o Malignant neoplasms range from well-differentiated to undifferentiated. Development of Cancer The stages of cancer include initiation, promotion, and progression. o The first stage, initiation, is a mutation in the cell’s DNA genetic structure following exposure to a chemical, radiation, or viral agent. The mutation may also be inherited. o Promotion, the second stage in the development of cancer, is characterized by the reversible proliferation of the altered cells. o Progression...

...Benjamin H. S. Scott, Jr HRDV 5630 Chapters 14, 18, 20 Chapter 14 dealt with restructuring organizations. There are three traditional organizational structures. These three structures are “functional departments that are task specialized, self-contained divisional units that are oriented to specific products, customers, or regions, and matrix structures that combine both functional specialization and self-containment” (Cummings, T., & Worley, C. p. 315). Due to accelerated changes in technologies and more intense competition, organizations have retooled their structures to be more holistic and flexible. “These more recent innovations include process structures that design subunits around the organization’s core processes, customer-centric structures that focus attention and resources on specific customer or customer segments, and network-based structures that link the organization to other, interdependent organizations” (Cummings, T., & Worley, C. p. 316) . The two restructuring interventions, downsizing and reengineering, were discussed for the rest of the chapter. Downsizing, according to Cummings, T., and Worley, C. (2009), decreases the size of the organization through workforce reduction (layoffs) or organizational redesign. The results of downsizing are mostly negative. The "negative productivity and employee consequences" (Cummings, T., & Worley, C. p. 337) couple with less than expected results and "reduced trust and loyalty" (Cummings, T.,...

...I have been a stay at home mother off and on since my first child was born 16 years ago. I heard constantly that being a stay at home mom is not right. I should be out there working and helping to support my family. A friend of mine has never been unemployed since she was 16. When she went on maternity leave about two years ago, she graduated college with a degree in teaching while on leave. After her six weeks of maternity leave, she found a full-time substitute position at an elementary school which led to a contract the next school year. The same people that ridiculed me for being a stay at home mom then ridiculed her for leaving her child at daycare so she could work. She has a wonderful husband who is involved in every aspect of her and their child’s life. They both spend equal amounts of time being a parent, individually and together. I see no suffering from the child because he does not have a stay at home mom. What I do see is a happy, healthy, well cared for, and loved child who has two very loving and involved parents, just as my children have and are, even though I am a stay at home mom. According to Nancy Chodorow, to have happy, healthy, and well balanced children both parents should be equally responsible for raising their children and both work outside the home. I partially agree with her theory. I agree that both parents should be equally responsible in raising their children, however, I do not agree that in order to raise happy, healthy, and well balanced children...

...Seth Marks Perspectives of Business & Society Professor Riff October 7, 2014 Chapter 16 1. I believe that employers have a 100% say on whether or not they will allow smoking at their workplace. If they are the owner than they should be allowed to tell their workers and/or customers that they are not allowed to smoke. If the owner of a restaurant says they do not want smoking by the customers or workers indoors nobody will complain. Why should it be any different in a different business? An employer is still an employer and they still have a say of what they allow at their workplace. 2. I believe it is absurd and extremely unfair to restrict or ban smoking by their employees out of their workplace. At this point it almost becomes as if the employer is a dictator and is able to control the aspects of their employee’s lives for something as simple as them wanting to relax and smoke some cigarettes or a cigar on their free time at home. What they do at home will not affect what happens at their workplace. It is also unfair to charge a smoker more for health insurance. As stated in the article the higher the health insurance the more you get charged by the government. Everyone know that nicotine is addicting and it is hard to stop. It is not fair to take extra money out of someone’s pocket who may need to feed a family for something as simple as them smoking at home or out of the workplace. 3. I do not believe that the government should be allowed to ban smoking...

What is the maximum directly addressable memory capacity (in bytes)? b. Discuss the impact on the system speed if the microprocessor bus has 1. a 32-bit local address bus and a 16-bit local data bus, or 2. a 16-bit local address bus and a 16-bit local data bus. c. How many bits are needed for the program counter and the instruction register? Answer: a. 2^(32-8) = 2^24 = 16,777,216 bytes = 16 MB ,(8 bits = 1 byte for he opcode). b.1. a 32-bit local address bus and a 16-bit local data bus. Instruction and data transfers would take three bus cycles each, one for the address and two for the data.

...Teenage Pregnancy: Acceptance as Pop Culture Our society comprises of many gender niches and roles. Women are sisters, daughters, and most importantly mothers. Motherhood is one of the most cherished roles that a woman can take on. In the past, women were meant to be seen and not heard as their value depended on their ability to bear children and raise them thoughtfully. Even though that has changed and women are expected to gain an education and lead a career, motherhood can still be a main part of their life. However, motherhood does spring upon on some by surprise. Teenage pregnancy in the last few years have been on the rise and has become a problem for some to live up to that expectation of an education and career (Peck). In the past, teenage pregnancy was a taboo. However its discussion has become more widely accepted. Through analyzing the Candie’s Foundation ad in the October 2011 issue of Teen Vogue, it can be seen as an example of the shift in perception of teenage pregnancy in the United States. The Candie’s Foundation is a philanthropic branch from the clothing line Candie’s. The clothes from the Candie’s brand are meant to appeal to teenage girls who dress girly and traditionally feminine. Focusing on the same demographic, the foundation was founded with the goal to raise awareness about teenage pregnancy in 2001, according to their website. The print ads from their current campaign mainly feature female celebrities such as Fergie, Hilary Duff, Ciara, Hayden...

...| Argumentative Analysis | Teenage Pregnancy | | Alisha Hunter | Core 201 | | In 2009, the first season of 16 and pregnant aired (a show to prevent teen pregnancy) and right after, it leads to a follow up of several spin-off shows of Teen Mom (after life of the girls on 16 and pregnant and where they are with their kids). After the first episodes of 16 and Pregnant and Teen mom many more seasons began to come out; four episodes of 16 and pregnant in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 and then leading to three seasons of Teen Mom (Teen Mom 2 and Teen Mom 3). Shortly after the shows aired it was said that girls were getting pregnant on purpose just to be on the new television show. The newly show for pregnant girls isn’t helping girls prevent pregnancy. But more of leading girls on to become pregnant just to be a star get their 15 minutes of fame. Is the show really coming off as educational and realistic or are the shows making the girls make bad decisions. It all started with Maci, Farrah, Amber and Catelynn on the first season of 16 and Pregnant. The show was made to be educational and prevent teen pregnancies, to show young girls and boys about the real struggles of being a teen parent, showing the real struggles of parenting. It went into great and deep detail of the everyday lives of the girls. The show started off as a good educational show but then lead into more drama than just teen pregnancy. Catelynn had more than just issues with dealing with her adoption...

...These interview questions test the knowledge of x86 Intel architecture and 8086 microprocessor specifically. 1. What is a Microprocessor? - Microprocessor is a program-controlled device, which fetches the instructions from memory, decodes and executes the instructions. Most Micro Processor are single- chip devices. 2. Give examples for 8 / 16 / 32 bit Microprocessor? - 8-bit Processor - 8085 / Z80 / 6800; 16-bit Processor - 8086 / 68000 / Z8000; 32-bit Processor - 80386 / 80486. 3. Why 8085 processor is called an 8 bit processor? - Because 8085 processor has 8 bit ALU (Arithmetic Logic Review). Similarly 8086 processor has 16 bit ALU. 4. What is 1st / 2nd / 3rd / 4th generation processor? - The processor made of PMOS / NMOS / HMOS / HCMOS technology is called 1st / 2nd / 3rd / 4th generation processor, and it is made up of 4 / 8 / 16 / 32 bits. 5. Define HCMOS? - High-density n- type Complimentary Metal Oxide Silicon field effect transistor. 6. What does microprocessor speed depend on? - The processing speed depends on DATA BUS WIDTH. 7. Is the address bus unidirectional? - The address bus is unidirectional because the address information is always given by the Micro Processor to address a memory location of an input / output devices. 8. Is the data bus is Bi-directional? - The data bus is Bi-directional because the same bus is used for transfer of data between Micro Processor and memory or input / output devices in both the direction. 9.
