...The folded napkin can have an elaborate placement on the table as a folded origami type or in a simple placement beside the dinner plates with a single napkin ring. Whatever the preference, the napkin will always be an eye-catching addition to any table setting. Napkin folding found its origins centuries ago. The Middle Age set a standard for table setting and manner as they became a major concern to people, particularly the royalty especially with the invention of the fork in the 1600s. This period in time is also a benchmark for when folding napkins became a highly pursued art for. This art allowed he homeowner to display their pride, as well as time and dedication to their homes overall appearance. I never thought that just by putting a simple folded napkin on a table could make such a difference but it really does. Whether it just a simple pocket to hold the silverware or it’s an intricate crown to give a little elegance to any dinner plate. I am going to show you how to do just one of the many napkin folding techniques. It is called the crown and it is really quite easy to do. So let’s get started. STEP 1 First start with your napkin in front of you, face-down and completely flat. STEP 2 Next, we are going to fold the napkin in half diagonally so that it looks like a triangle. STEP 3 Make sure that the open ends of the triangle are pointing away from you. STEP 4 Fold the right-corner up so that the point rests directly on top of the middle-corner. The...

...Kaitlyn Grubb February 18, 2013 English 015 Rhetorical Analysis Break Away from Perfection Fresh, salty air succumbs every small crevice of your body. A sun drenched angelic beach stands in front of you, waiting to be discovered. The sunlight glitters on every grain of sand, revealing miniscule specks of gold beneath the surface. This beach is so innocent, so white, and so pure. The beautiful, enormous ocean waves are crashing against the cliffs as you watch the seagulls joyfully fly around in circles. Warm, golden sand runs between your toes while the gentle breeze glides through your wavy hair. Gorgeous, shiny shells are washed along the shoreline by the rippling of the water. This moment is absolutely breathtaking, and you cannot help to feel amazing in your white, strappy bikini. But suddenly, you are woken up from this magnificent dream and violently brought back to reality. You can no longer sit and enjoy this heavenly view, especially in that white bikini. The time has come…to change your tampon. Tampon commercials have become dull and misleading. The concept of that “time of the month” is now construed to be a glorious time, filled with love and beauty. Dancing, exercising, or running along the beach wearing white is just some of the many aspects of the hundreds of unrealistic commercials for feminine products. Fortunately, there is a new, daring brand that emphasizes the key trait of being honest and realistic. The Kotex brand brings a fresh life to tampon advertisements...

...Original Research Article Menstrual hygiene management amongst school going girls in Kisii County, Kenya Definitions Pubic mixed day secondary schools- government schools with both boys and girls who do not board in the school. ABSTRACT Introduction: Menstruation is a natural phenomenon among matured females who experience shedding of blood for 1-7 days every month from the age of maturity until menopause. Menstrual hygiene management is an issue that is insufficiently acknowledged and has not received adequate attention. Objective: To evaluate the knowledge and practice on menstrual hygiene among school going girls and assess access to clean, safe and private space for menstrual hygiene management in schools Problem Statement: There is lack of clean, safe and private space for menstrual hygiene purposes. Poor menstrual hygiene practices are affecting the health well being of girls including anxiety, infection, education and discomfort. In mixed day secondary schools, there are no special Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) facilities for the purposes of handling menstruation safely and in dignity Methodology: A descriptive crosssectional study was conducted as from March 2014 to April 2014 on 175 girls recruited from two mixed secondary day schools in Kisii Township. Indepth questionnaires were used to collect data from the girls, key informant interviwers conducted on the head teachers and focused discussions held with 16 randomly selected girls. An...

...Competency 208.5.2.F F. Explain how bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) works at a molecular level by doing the following: 1. Explain the role of prions in BSE, including each of the following: * how prions are formed * the connection between misfolding and aggregation * how prions lead to the disease A prion is a protein where the amino acid sequence or primary structure remains unchanged from that of a normal protein but the conformation has been changed by misfolding at the secondary and tertiary levels of protein structure. Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy or BSE is a disease caused by prions. The prion which causes BSE is called PRPSC. It is the misfolded variety of the native protein PRPC. Prions are contagious. When the abnormally folded protein comes in contact with the native protein, it will cause the normally folded proteins to change their conformation to the misfolded form. The BSE prion’s changed shape or conformation causes it to be hydrophobic and therefore insoluble. The prion’s hydrophobic nature causes it to clump together or aggregate with the other hydrophobic BSE prions. These insoluble proteins aggregate or build up in the tissue and form a plaque. The plaques form on the cell membrane leading to cell death. In BSE, the cells affected are the neurons of the brain and nervous system. As the prions aggregate on the cell membrane, the neurons of the brain die leaving holes in the brain tissue that give it a sponge-like...

...Bovine Spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) occurs at a molecular level by infectious proteins also known as Prions. Prions can form by changes in DNA or mutations which result in a change of protein conformation. Chaperones provide an environment so proteins fold properly, bad chaperones influence the good chaperones to take form as harmful proteins. Eventually aggregates of these harmful proteins form and these aggregates lead to cell death. “The prion hypothesis suggest that diseases like BSE are caused by the misfolding of a protein known as PrP that most cells contain. Once a few copies of protein become misfolded they cause PrP’s to misfold, leading to accumulation of insoluble proteins in the cell. These misfolded proteins cause cell death and damage to the nervous system.” A country without regulations in place can help reduce risk of transmitting BSE by properly discarding possibly contaminated cattle feed. Brain and spinal cord matter should be discarded, and watching cattle with possible signs of BSE should not be introduced into the feed. One possible sign of BSE in cattle is not being able to walk, some may demonstrate aggressive behavior. The following statement is another possible way of introducing safe ways to discard contaminated cattle in a country without regulations: “According to Dr. Lisa Ferguson, a senior staff veterinarian at the Agriculture Department, said the department favored dissolving carcasses in tissue digestors, are essentially giant pressure cookers...

Those proteins then replicate within the body and lead to brain degeneration and ultimately will cause the death of the infected individual BSE: The Molecular Level DNA makes RNA RNA makes amino acids chains of amino acids make proteins Amino acids have an amine group on one end and a carboxyl group on the other, with a Hydrogen and an R group (1 of 20 amino acids) attached to the Carbon.

...without the use of genetic materials. They can cross between species such as cattle, and sheep. Extreme heats chemical agents can inactivate the proteins. Prions are naturally occurring in the body and are not considered foreign nor do they stimulate the immune system and will not hurt your body, however the disease causing prions contact the normal prions by physical contact and alter the normal prions therefore causing the disease. With Mad Cow Disease The Prions target the specific protein in the cell that is normal called PrPC The role of protein Misfolding in BSE Diseased proteins result from improper folding and therefore the misfolded proteins induces copies of the same protein to also again misfold and increases the disease progress when it is misfolded. The scrapie prion PrPsc contacts and bumps into the normal cellular form PrPc intermediate and shifts the folding process converting them to the misfolded prion (the sheep version of mad cow disease called the PrPsc prion). The process continues over and over again. The body continues producing the normal cell PrPc and the scrapie prion PrPsc continues creating more replications of itself without needing any nucleic acid of its own. The role of protein Aggregation in BSE Proteosomes are known as the protein destroyer and therefore gets rid of non needed proteins, they clump together inside the cell which is called aggregation. It continues building and then kills the cells causing the spongy appearance of the tissue...

...A Tale of Three Wheels in the Bicycle Industry Pacific Cycle Chris Hornung, the founder and the first CEO of Pacific Cycle grabs a lion’s share of the U.S. bicycle markets. In 2005, around 19.8 millions of bicycle were sold in U.S. the total retail value of bikes, parts, and accessories were more than $6 billion. There are basically hundreds of bicycle manufacturers in U.S., but they are small specialized firm. Pacific Cycle is interested in high-volume business. Pacific Cycle designs, markets, and distributes a full range of bikes brands such as GT, Schwinn, Mongoose, Roadmaster, etc. Its’ powerful brand portfolio serves virtually all demographics, price categories, and product categories. Hornung pioneered the concept of sourcing bicycle from Asia for distribution in the U.S. Hornung’s first mass-market retailers are Target Corp. and Toys ‘R’ Us. Now, Pacific Cycle is the fastest growing branded consumer companies in the U.S. Hornung achieved this success by combining an aggressive acquisition of powerful brands with low-cost outsourcing, efficient supply chain management, and multichannel retail distribution. In December 2000, Pacific Cycle acquired Brunswick Corp. for $60 million, which includes Mongoose, Mongoose Prop, and Roadmaster brand. In this deal, PC does not only get the brand, but also the a very big customer: Wal-Mart (Brunswick’s biggest account), which doubled PC’s sales. A year later, PC bought the assets of Schwinn/GT Corp. out of bankruptcy for...

...Four Forces that Stabilize a Protein’s Structure at the Tertiary Level There are several types of bonds and forces that hold a protein in its tertiary structure. Hydrophobic interactions contribute to the folding and shaping of a protein. The "R" group of the amino acid is either hydrophobic or hydrophilic. The amino acids with hydrophilic "R" groups will search for interactions with water, while amino acids with hydrophobic "R" groups will avoid water and clump towards the center protein. Hydrogen bonding in the polypeptide chain and between amino acid "R" groups helps to stabilize protein structure by holding the protein in the shape made by the hydrophobic interactions. Due to protein folding, ionic bonding can occur between the positively and negatively charged "R" groups that come in contact with one another. Folding can also result in covalent bonding between the "R" groups of cysteine amino acids, also known as a disulfide bridge (strongest bond). Van der Waals forces interactions help in the stabilization of protein structure. These interactions refer to to the attractive and repulsive forces that occur between molecules that become polarized. These forces contribute to the bonding that occurs between molecules. (Borges,2014) Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Mad cow disease or bovine spongiform encephalopathy is a deadly neurological disease that affects adult cattle. It is transmitted from animal to animal through contaminated food that contain infected central...

The Ionic bonds are strong bonds which occur between positive and negatively charge ions of separate amino acids. Hydrophobic bonds are the weakest bonds which occur between two non-polar molecules when they come together into the interior of the structure to minimize contact with water. As the hydrophobic R groups pack together other molecules form Van der Waals...

His upbringing taught him the relevance of making the most of the little. An understanding further imbibed from his mother who has played a profound influence in his life. A brilliant mind, he studied journalism as well as Advertising & Public Relations from Indian Institute of Mass Communication, and then Masters in Economics. While still a graduate student in 1991, he traveled to Uttarkashi, North India after a major earthquake. Missing out on his classes, he lived in tents for days and helped in the relief efforts. This shocked his urban sensibilities. After completing his studies, he joined the corporate sector. Insatiate, he craved for that feeling of satisfaction that went beyond one’s personal goal and self-interest. His longing to give back to society, do something different to benefit thousands and involve people’s participation inspired an idea. He ultimately left Escorts as Manager, Corporate Communications in 1998 to work full time on his idea. Goonj, his dream for many years, was set up in the same year. From collecting clothes from his own house, relatives and friends and distributing them on the roads in the chilly winter nights of Delhi, his dream has come a long way. He has organized an effective distribution channel for disposing off reusable resources lying in urban, well-off households...
