...Chelsea Li English 80 M-R 9:00-12:30 Oct 12, 2014 Intrinsic is better than extrinsic As the old saying goes that, “Beauty without virtue is a rose without fragrance.” However in real society, the situation seems to be different. Although Countless people emphasize that fairness is of great significance and the bias is not acceptable, inequity and discrimination are still existing, especially when referred to the outer appearance. To be more specific, when somebody walks around a huge public company, they definitely will notice that almost all the department managers are good looking and wear luxurious clothes, while on the other side cleaners are usually old and fat. What’s more,According to the article “The Price of Blackness” author Lanre Akinsiku used his own experience to present several “unfair” he met in his daily life, because of his black skin. Recently, several critics indicate that one’s personality and outer appearance are both essential, although the public seems to prefer judging by appearance instead of considering both aspects. Therefore, adopting this sort of method to judge a person has several side effects and does create loads of problems happen, particularly about unfair treatment, discrimination and fear. There is no doubt that depending only on outer appearance to estimate a person will bring injustice judgements and offer people unfair treatments. No one can deny that all the human beings live in the same world but because of both the genetic destiny...

...Mobile Technology, Social Media and a 180 million peopled Market Introduction “Information technology has for sometime been a wildcard in business, a source of opportunity and uncertainty, of advantage and risk” (Applegate, Austin, & McFarlan, 2007). Advanced economies of the world have in the past three decades taken advantage of Information Technology in all facets of life especially in the utilization of IT to drive efficiency in organizations as well as the linkages between the organization and its internal and external stakeholders. Though technology in advanced economies of the world has become embedded in the everyday life of people especially in the way they define strategy and how business is defined, not much can be said for the advancement of such new technologies in developing Nations due to so many reasons. The main reason for the hitherto poor penetration and utilization of IT in developing countries can be attributed to various factors including poverty, inadequate infrastructure, poor Internet penetration, high cost of energy, corruption and an unstable political system. However the trend seems to be changing since the mid 2000s. Economic index and a potential growth market Nigeria is an example of a developing economy that is embracing IT systems in organizations due to the rapidly growing trend of consumers utilizing the Internet. Internet usage has increased as a result of the increasing use of smart phones, which has in recent years become more...

...Current research on cystic fibrosis gene therapy suggests that it will become an important treatment strategy INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease, triggered by mutation in the gene CFTR i.e. cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. CFTR is an ABC gene i-e ATP-binding cassette (transporter) gene that encodes a protein. This CFTR protein is a chloride ion channel protein that controls the flow of chloride ions and water across the cells. This movement is important in generating sweat, digestive juices, as well as mucus secretion and its clearance. This CFTR gene is located at q 31.2 locus of chromosome 7 long arm. The most common mutation in cystic fibrosis is removal of three nucleotides that results in loss of a nucleotide phenylalanine (F) at 508th position at the long arm of chromosome 7. Depending upon the protein expression and function six classes of mutations have been identified in cystic fibrosis: CLASS I: these are non-sense mutations that hinder the protein synthesis as they have premature stop codons. CLASS II: these mutations are most commonly found in patients of cystic fibrosis that include the deletions of phenylalanine 508th del. As a result of this deletion, protein folding is reduced and as a result its transport to cell surface is impaired and it undergoes degradation within the cellular lysosomes. CLASS III: in these mutations, proteins are normally present but are not expressed to a level that responds to intracellular...
