...at one person as their spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama. For the people of Tibet, they looked at the Dalai Lama as both their spiritual leader and their political leader. When you die in Buddhism, it is known that you will reincarnate as another being based on how you lived your previous life. If and when the current Dalai Lama passes away, there is a list of criteria that must be met in order to discover the rebirth of the Dalai Lama. The criteria for the new Dalai Lama are normally based around, “Indicative statements made by the previous Dalai Lama during his lifetime, significant auguries surrounding his death and afterward, and meditative visions by special lamas were recorded and interpreted as guides to finding his rebirth” (Jones, 2131). To interpret the passage from the encyclopedia, the Dalai Lama cannot be just anyone. Around the age of two or three, the new Dalai Lama would be discovered and that was the case for Tenzin Gyatso. During the search for the rebirth of the Thirteenth Dalai Lama, there were two young boys that were chosen to compete for the spot of the Fourteenth Dalai Lama. The search took place in the 1933, soon after the death of Thupten Gyatso, who died at age fifty-seven. Despite the fact that two candidates were found, only one was able to successfully complete the tests and the omens were in agreement that Tenzin Gyatso was the rebirthed Dalai Lama. (Encyclopedia of Religion, 2132; The Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama). In the next few years...

...ARTICLES PUBLISHED ONLINE: 15 DECEMBER 2014 | DOI: 10.1038/NCHEM.2131 Copper-catalysed selective hydroamination reactions of alkynes Shi-Liang Shi and Stephen L. Buchwald* The development of selective reactions that utilize easily available and abundant precursors for the efficient synthesis of amines is a long-standing goal of chemical research. Despite the centrality of amines in a number of important research areas, including medicinal chemistry, total synthesis and materials science, a general, selective and step-efficient synthesis of amines is still needed. Here, we describe a set of mild catalytic conditions utilizing a single copper-based catalyst that enables the direct preparation of three distinct and important amine classes (enamines, α-chiral branched alkylamines and linear alkylamines) from readily available alkyne starting materials with high levels of chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity. This methodology was applied to the asymmetric synthesis of rivastigmine and the formal synthesis of several other pharmaceutical agents, including duloxetine, atomoxetine, fluoxetine and tolterodine. C omplex organic molecules play a crucial role in the study and treatment of disease. The extent to which they can be utilized in these endeavours depends on the efficient and selective chemical methods for their construction1. Amines are widely represented in biologically active natural products and medicines2 (a small selection of which are shown in Fig. 1a). Consequently, the selective...

...Impact of Cognitive Impairment on Screening Mammography Use in Older US Women Kala M. Mehta, DSc, MPH, Kathy Z. Fung, MS, Christine E. Kistler, MD, Anna Chang, MD, and Louise C. Walter, MD Screening mammography guidelines suggest that women with a life expectancy less than 4 to 5 years at the time of screening are unlikely to benefit from breast cancer screening and, thus, should not be screened.1–3 Although some cancer screening guidelines specify upper-age cutoffs for stopping screening as a surrogate for life expectancy (e.g., prostate-specific antigen screening guidelines suggest stopping at age 75 years),4 we do not know of any guidelines that specify the types of comorbidity that would preclude screening. This is despite the fact that certain comorbid conditions, such as dementia, are stronger predictors of life expectancy than age.5 Specifically, patients with dementia generally live less than 5 years6–12 and therefore are unlikely to benefit from screeningmammography. In addition, having dementia or severe cognitive impairment increases the likelihood that elderly women will experience harm from screening mammography (e.g., more psychological distress from false-positive results because of the inability to understand screening procedures, and more complications from the treatment of clinically insignificant disease).13,14 Moreover, screeningmammography can distract care away from more pressing medical problems arising from either the cognitive...

...I am writing a short essay about two major topics of DHCP. The first topic would be explaining the benefits of using DHCP instead of a static addresses. The second topic is explaining why DHCP is a better option than using static addresses. DHCP is known as (Dynamically Host Configuration Protocol) that uses a client/server protocol that automatically provides an Internet Protocol (IP) host with its IP address and other configurations information such as the subnet mask and default gateway. RFCs 2131 and 2132 define DHCP as an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard based on Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), a protocol which DHCP shares many operation details. DHCP allows hosts to obtain required TCP/IP configuration information from a DHCP server. Dynamically Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides four key benefits to managing and maintaining a TCP/IP networks. Those four terms are centralized administration of IP configuration, Dynamic Host Configuration, Seamless IP host configuration, and Flexibility and Scalability. DHCP has reliable IP address configuration, which minimizes configuration errors caused by manual IP address configuration, such as address conflicts caused by the assignment of an IP address to more than one computer at the same time. DHCP also benefits in reducing network administration. DHCP reduce the network administration by using centralized and automated TCP/IP configuration. It has the ability to define the TCP/IP configurations from a central...

...Michael Dalton Humphries Professor Breedlove English 2131 28 September 2011 The Fight against Social Injustices Henry David Thoreau and Martin Luther king both stood up and fought against social injustices. Thoreau wrote his essay “Civil Disobedience” to express his views on the role of government. Thoreau also expressed his ideas about what men should do to stand up to a government that sought to suppress its citizens. King started reading Thoreau during his school years and adopted his non-violent ways of protest. He molded his actions around Thoreau’s essay and fought for equal rights for the African American community. Both authors sought peaceful means to protest against things they deemed social injustices. In Thoreau’s “Civil Disobedience” and King’s “Letters from a Birmingham Jail” they present the problems with current societies and a peaceful way to bring those problems to the forefront. Thoreau and King both show their selflessness when they sacrificed their personal freedom for an issue. Thoreau was thrown in jail for not paying a poll tax. He refused to pay the tax because; he did not support slavery and the Mexican America war. Although Thoreau’s views in “Civil Disobedience” were his own and he was not trying to push them on anyone, they obviously had a profound impact on Martin Luther King. Writer Michael Mink of Investors Business Daily said this about King, “He was fascinated by the idea of refusing to cooperate with...

...Ivana Barac Professor Harold ENGL 2131 22 March 2016 Phillis Wheatley was an African slave that was brought to America in the mid to late 1700’s. Her new slave owners in Boston had an immensely unique relationship with her. They taught Wheatley how to read and write which eventually led her to become an influential poet. She has created many poems in her life regarding her outlook on slavery. In one particular poem, “On Being Brought from Africa to America”, Wheatley shows her positive and uplifting stance on slavery. CARRETTA, VINCENT. "Phillis Wheatley: Researching A Life." Historical Journal Of Massachusetts 43.2 (2015): 64-89. America: History and Life with Full Text. Web. 22 Mar. 2016. Vincent Carretta created an article to detail the life of Phillis Wheatley which ultimately assists readers in understanding why she was so uplifting in her poetry. He begins with a brief introduction on her early life and background. Shortly after discussing Wheatley’s early life, Carretta brings in a new perspective on her stating, “The literary quality and the political significance of her writings have been challenged since the eighteenth century” (Corretta 66). The statement he presents shows an interesting view when dealing with a poet who is so significant in literature. He later speaks of Wheatley’s husband and other trips she had taken away from Africa. The situations Carretta informs readers on brings insight on Wheatley’s life and how/why she became the type of woman...

...National Health Care Spending Tylecia Westbrook HCS/440 Oct 8, 2014 Dr. Laura Newton Introduction Healthcare spending in the United States plays a vital role in the US economy. The healthcare field is a growing professional. There is millions of dollars that are spent on healthcare each year. From research, drugs, new technology and patient care it is the driving force of the health care system. Health care has provided lots of jobs and a means of survive for many Americans. With insurance companies driving up the cost of premieres and the new Affordable Care Act into place health care spending will only continue to drive the price up. With all of the demands for cues and people wanting to leave longer there has been a major impact on Health Care spending. Health Care Expenditures Over the last several years the U.S. health care expenditures has been on a rise. Heath care has risen so fast that many Americans have not been able to keep up even with their earning in order to be able to afford healthcare. “The U.S. spends 16 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) on health care, compared with 8 to 10 percent in most major industrialized nations” (2014, The Commonwealth Fund.). According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services projects that the increase in health spending will outpace the GDP over the next 10 years. (2014, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid). In recent headlines the healthcare rate has been at a slow rate of 3.7%. Although that may sound...

...Saving Honor The poem, Sir Gawain and The Green Knight, shows how one of Camelot’s most revered knights, Sir Gawain, will fight for his life, honor, and dignity. Camelot, King Arthur, and The Knights of The Round Table are all names synonymous with all that is good. During the fourteenth century, the knights are expected to have honor and respect for all citizens and Sir Gawain is the epitome of honor. Gawain does not think highly of himself but sustains a high status with knights being a blood relative of King Arthur. By story’s end, Gawain will question if he maintains his honor, respect, and dignity in a fight for his life. The poem opens with Arthur, the knights, and some members of the community celebrating the new year when an unknown knight arrives in the kingdom. The narrator describes him as, “giant” in stature: he, his horse, and his ax are all green, but with a green armor outlined in gold. He calls out his challenge, “give me a well-aimed stroke, and agree / To accept another in repayment when my turn / Arrives” (1. 294-296). Eager to prove his bravery to his uncle, the king, Gawain accepts the challenge. He understands that he will face the same fate one year later and takes the Green Knight’s ax, swings with all his might, and beheads him. At the moment, the hubris of Gawain is at the highest level. Gawain thinks it may be the end of his challenge, but the Green Knight retrieves his head from the floor and tells Gawain to meet him a year to the date at the Green...
