There are various forms of collective violence. These include:
-War, terrorism, political conflicts
-Genocide, disappearances, torture, human rights abuses
-Organized violent crime (gangs, etc.)
In order to apply the sociological imagination to this problem, select one of the forms of collective violence and describe the consequences of that type of collective violence on the macro and micro levels. What might it be like to experience the type of collective violence you selected? Give specifics of how your current life would be affected by this type of violence. What global social problems might be perpetuated by this type of collective violence? Next, propose a possible solution to the global social problems you presented.

Al Amerat landfill is the first engineered sanitary landfill in Oman which began its operations in early 2011. The landfill site consists of many landfills; the first landfill is expected to complete in the end of this year. Good landfill restoration provides an opportunity for landfill operators to promote public acceptance of landfills. Restoration is a process which will return a site to a condition suitable for its proposed after use whilst incorporating measures to protect human health and the environment. Suggest Closure, Post Closure Plan and Landfill Aftercare Plan and After Use for the first landfill in Al Amerat. (Solid waste related issues)

i) Discuss the importin-alpha nuclear import cycle, mechanistically accounting for the key steps of nuclear transport. (Essay style include appropriate diagrams)
ii) Quantitative reasoning, 10 marks: During DNA replication, the genome is duplicated as chromatin. How fast does nuclear transport of histones have to take place in terms of molecules/pore/second in order to support S-phase in human cells? Assume the genome is 6 x 109 bp, a nucleosome spans 200 bp and that 75% of the genome is replicated in the first 3 hr of S-phase. Nuclei contain 2000 nuclear pore complexes. (show work)

3. Is it right to kill animals to eat their meat? Explain in
detail how, according to utilitarianism, you can argue for both
sides. What conclusion do you go for yourself and why? Explain the
concepts you use and show clearly how you reason.
4.Bentham believes that lust has an intrinsic value - that's good

correct, and anything that says it's correct? Is there anything
that has an intrinsic value according to you?
5. Explain what Sartre means that man is "sentenced to freedom". In

Human Sexuality issues always sparks much debate. Do you believe in soul mates? How about love at first sight? Do you think you’re destined to find that one-in-six-billion diamond in the rough or is happily-ever-after a matter of compromise, hard work and compatibility? You may think you’ve selected your paramour based on similar interests or that witty sense of humor, but science suggests that there are biological forces at play as well. please submit a one-page reflection on what you may have learned and/or what may have surprised you regarding the topic of Sex Science

From Michael on Skeptics Stackexchange:
How about a wire that's grounded? Safe to touch, right? WRONG.

Ground
The wire you touched was not only at 0 volts, but also grounded, and yet, you are feeling pretty shitty in this diagram. You have ceased to be as a human, and you are now a part of a circuit, functioning as part of a return leg (pictured above) or as a "parallel path to ground" (not pictured above.)
I don't get how this can work. If the wire is at 0 volts and you are at 0 volts, then there is no potential difference and hence I'd expect no current. Is this physics correct?

Each CLC group will choose one subsystem to change and create a PowerPoint presentation of 12-15 slides (including title and reference slides) addressing the following questions that pertain to the major human resource management responsibilities and to change management. Strengthen your recommendations by showing how your proposed changes are working in another similar organization that is successful. The company is Coca-Cola, and we are brining in product snacks, like protein bar and healthy snack such as dried fruit. 3. How will the subsystem change affect the two other subsystems within the organization that you have identified and how will you realign the total system?

According to research, employers want managers to
possess three skills through education and experience. They are the
following:
Technical skill-The ability to perform a specific job
in the field they work.
Conceptional skill-The ability to think beyond the
department in which you work to understand how the entire
organization function as a whole.
Human Skill-The soft skills of connecting and
interacting with people.
Tell me about a time you encounter a manager who
possess one of these skills. How did they effectively manage their
team using the skill identified?
If a manager doesn’t possess these skills do you think
they can be an effective manager. Why or Why not.
