...Hope Hayman DNA Bar Coding: Is Convenient and Accurate for Taxonomy Studies Introduction— Different samples of “wild card” subjects and given subjects (Drosophila melanogaster and the Coquina clams) genomic DNA were acquired and isolated through several steps to amplify the cytochrome c oxidase 1 (CO1) genes. Through comparisons of these wild cards and given subjects mitochondrial CO1 genes with the BLAST library, it was revealed that DNA bar coding is convenient and accurate for taxonomy study. DNA bar coding utilizes the amplification and purification of a specific region of the mitochondrial genome by polymerase chain reactions (PCR). DNA bar coding then uses the PCR products ran in gel electrophoresis to analyze. Materials and Methods— DNA Isolation The wild card specimens were obtained and brought to the lab for DNA isolation. The first step in DNA isolation was to lyse the specimen. The specimens were first homogenized individually in 1.5 mL microtubes. 20 µL of proteinase K was added to each homogenized sample. 200 µL of AL buffer was then added to each sample. The samples were vertexed and incubated at 70oC for 10 minutes. After the incubation, 200 µL of 100% ethanol was added and vortexed again. The next step in DNA isolation is to bind the DNA. The lysate was transferred to a spin column and centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 1 minute, and the flow through was discarded. 500 µL of AW1 buffer was added, then centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 1 minute, and the flow through was...

...El teletrabajo es una nueva tendencia de trabajo que se está implementando alrededor del mundo. Su concepto principal se encuentra en el artículo 2 de la Ley 1221 del 2008: ‘’ Definiciones. Para la puesta en marcha de la presente ley se tendrán las siguientes definiciones: Teletrabajo. Es una forma de organización laboral, que consiste en el desempeño de actividades remuneradas o prestación de servicios a terceros utilizando como soporte las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación – TIC para el contacto entre el trabajador y la empresa, sin requerirse la presencia física del trabajador en un sitio específico de trabajo’’ . En varios países este nuevo concepto ha sido bastante útil, ayudando a que las personas encuentren un nuevo camino para poder trabajar. Se cree que es muy coherente por varios motivos. Primero existe una coherencia jurídica donde, por ejemplo, el teletrabajador tendrá las mismas seguridades y garantías que el trabajador. En el artículo 6 de la Ley 1221/08 se habla de las garantías laborales, sindicales y de seguridad social para los teletrabajadores. Se busca una igualdad entre los trabajadores y los teletrabajadores en todos los campos como lo dispone de igual manera el artículo 4 del Decreto 0884 del 2012 y también el uso del Código Sustantivo del Trabajo en el artículo 39 donde el contrato con un teletrabajador tiene que cumplir con los requisitos dispuestos en este. La segunda es una coherencia social y global. La sociedad cada días más está...

...ADVANCED TAX Consider the following examples designed to illustrate the point that you should study the law and not problems. General rule on income: All income is taxable unless something in the tax law says that it is not. General rule on deductions: Nothing is deductible unless some provision in the tax law says that it is. General rule on losses: The only losses that are deductible are for 1) Investment, 2) Business, or 3) Casualty. Example #1: Bill is in love and buys his girlfriend, Hillary, an engagement ring at a cost of $100. Later, she notices his roving eye and returns the ring to him and he sells it for $95. What is the tax result? (Megan and Phuong) SP = 95, basis = 100 ( loss = The loss is not deductible because the only losses that are deductible are for investment, business or casualty. Example #2: Bill is in love and buys his girlfriend, Hillary, an engagement ring at a cost of $100. Later, she notices his roving eye and returns the ring to him and he sells it for $105. What is the tax result? (Phuong and Jake) The gain of $5 is taxable because nothing says it’s not HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD – The requirements are as follows: 1. The person must be unmarried. 2.

...During the 13th century a small tribe known as the “barbarians” swept across Asia, Middle East, and Eastern Europe. They were known to be the negative and evil people throughout their civilizations. These people had little thoughts about farming due to them being nomadic and had always eaten meat. They were also known to be very destructive in their path. First off, Genghis Khan’s had violent ideas as one of them being, slaughtering the streets of Chinese capital with human flesh everywhere. A little history about Genghis Khan is that he never had the easiest childhood. He spent most of his teenage years fighting clan rivals since his father was poisoned by a rival. Genghis had won the leadership in 1206 while aspirations began to grow...

...In the case, the married couple Ted and Ruth are planning to sell their principal residence in Richmond and purchase a new one after that. Meanwhile, they and their families use their vacation home in Maryland on a frequent basis. The main tax issues we need to examine here are (1) How much gain should Ted and Ruth realize and recognize on sale of their principle residence? What is the nature of such gain? Should they include the gain in their gross income? (2) Are Ted and Ruth allowed to deduct expenses for their vacation home on the joint tax return? According to Internal Revenue Code section 121 (a) & (b), individuals can exclude up to $250,000 gain from gross income on sale of a main home (or $500,000 for joint returns) as long as they have owned the home and used the home for a minimum of two years. The two years are aggregating which means your living period in the house does not need to be consecutive. However, the $500,000 limitation does not apply to the married couple in our case since Ted fails the use requirements mentioned above (section 121 (b) (2) (A) (ii)). Since Ted moved into the Richmond home on December 13 of 2010 and that the sale date is September 1 of 2012, his stay in the house is less than two years. The amount they can exclude should be the sum of each spouse’s limitation amount determined on a separate basis as if they had not been married (section 121 (b) (2) (B)). Since Ted would not have owned the house if he had not married to Ruth, the amount of...

...Life of Saint Dominic St. Dominic (sometimes spelled St. Domonic) was born Dominic Guzman around 1170 in Old Castile, Spain. He was born into a family of privilege and educated in Spain where he attended university for ten years, studying the arts and theology. Education and learning were centerpieces of his life, as were kindness and charity. Saint Dominic Guzman is the patron saint of scientists and astronomy, among others. The life of St. Dominic is very interesting, as he traveled widely and met people from every level of society. His strong belief in education was cemented in the early 13th century whenhe accompanied the Bishop of Osma on a diplomatic mission that crossed into the south of France. There they encountered the Cathars, a group of educated people who were yet heretics. His attempts to preach to them failed, but he came away from the experience having seen a successful model: learning faith through schooling. He returned to the region later and established the first Catholic nunnery at Sainte Marie de Prouille, and the nuns later became known as the Sisters of Saint Dominic. He worked very hard in the following years to spread education about Christ. One well-recounted miracle associated with the story of St. Dominic occurred when he was in Fanjeaux, participating in a theological disputation or debate. His manuscripts and those of his adversaries were compared and various points highlighted. Someone suggested that the manuscripts of both...
