Transcript: Performance Enhancing Drugs Why do people take steroids What are steroids The dangers of performance enhancing drug use What God thinks about people who use steroids illegally Thesis Statement The desire is so strong for fame and fortune that some athletes will result to taking steroids to try and make themselves just as great as these athletes. Introduction Walter Patton, Michael Jordan, Muhammad Ali were some of the greatest athletes in the world. These three athletes are perfect examples of how an individual can obtain the fame and fortune that comes with being great at a sport. So it is no mystery why those who play sports have a desire to want to be the best. The desire is so strong for some athletes that they will result to taking steroids to try and make themselves just as great as these athletes. Steroids enhances your muscles and make you perform better. But taking steroids to increase your athletic ability is illegal and in many cases can be deadly. There is much debate about whether taking sports enhancing drugs should be illegal or legal. Dedication Page I, Michael Howell would like to dedicate my thesis paper to parents because they would stay up with me all night doing homework. They encourage me to keep going and never give up. Why people take Steroids The life of an professional athlete can look very attractive. But this life is not an option for everyone that plays sports. There are some athletes that have the natural ability and there are some that cheat by taking performance enhancing drugs in order to make it to and in professional sports. It is shocking that someone would take such a great risk by taking steroids in order to become or maintain being a professional athlete, but according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention steroid use has increased in professional sports and has doubled in high school sports. More than 6 percent or as many as 1 million U.S. students, said they had taken steroids at least once. With so many athletes seeing steroids as an option to increase their chances of getting better at sports. One must be wondering how does taking steroids to increase athletic ability actually work. The effects of steroids Steroids are some times referred to as roids, hype, weight trainers or gym candy are similar a hormone in our body. Our body naturally produces steroids to support functions in the body to fight stress and promote growth and development. These steroids are called androgen. The most powerful androgen in our body is called testosterone. This androgen is mostly found in male bodies but female bodies produce small amounts. Androgen promotes masculine traits that guys develop during puberty, such as your voice getting deeper and the growth of your body hair. Testosterone can also affect how aggressive a person is. But some people use steroids pills, gels, creams or injections because they think they can improve there performance or the way they look. These are called anabolic steroids which are artificially made hormones or fake steroids. There are over 100 variations of anabolic steroids. Here is an example of an anabolic (artificially made)steroid to your left and an androgen (body produced) steroid to your right. Dangers of Steroids Fake steroids or anabolic steroids stimulate muscle tissue to grow and “bulk up” in response to training by mimicking the effect of naturally produced androgen. Anabolic steroids can remain in the body anywhere from a couple of days to about a year. Since anabolic steroids are a weaker form of androgen so they have to be taking in larger doses in order to get the result of bulking up muscle tissue. For example muscle builders. But has dangerous side effects which are listed below. premature balding or hair loss dizziness believing things that aren't true (delusion) extreme feelings of mistrust or fear (paranoia) nausea and vomiting high blood pressure that can damage the heart or blood vessels over time greater chance of injuring muscles and tendons jaundice or yellowing of the skin; liver damage urinary problems shortening of final adult height increased risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and some types of cancer What God thinks about steroids I Corinthians 6: 19-20 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy who is in you, whom you have from God,and you are not your own. For you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. Steroids will negatively effect your body, it will effect the way God meant for you body to be. He made you in his on image so why would you illegally want mess up the way God created you just to be good at something , I wouldn't. Conclusion Steroids are very deadly and should not be tampered with unless prescribed by a doctor. There if nothing wrong with having a goal but there are safer and better ways to succeed ,like eating healthy, or working out. Joining gym or getting a personal trainer is also another good idea. But you shouldn't be so desperate to be an all-star that

Transcript: Why is access to consumer banking services important? Vital to expand opportunities beyond the rich and connected, and encourage the growth of the economy A socio-political right, “on a similar level as access to basic needs such as safe water, health services, and education.” Positive relationship between access to and use of banking services at a nation-wide level, and economic development within individual nations Not enough money Family member already has an account Too expensive Too far away Lack of necessary documentation Lack of trust None of the reasons listed Religions reasons World Bank Global Financial Inclusion (Global Findex) database: Derived from more than 150,000 interviews in 148 economies Measures how adults in 148 economies save, borrow, make payments, and manage risk Interviews with adults, aged 15 and older, conducted in 2011 Gallup collected the data for this database funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation World Bank’s World Development Indicators (WDI) and Global Development Finance (GDF) databases: WDI is the primary World Bank database for development data from officially recognized international sources GDF is the World Bank database regarding debt and financial statistics for countries that report public and publicly guaranteed debt under the World Bank's Debtor Reporting System (DRS) Independent Variable: One combined variable that accounts for ATM machines per 1000 adults and commercial bank branches per 1000 adults, 2011 and 2010 Dependent Variables: Percentage of adults who used a mobile phone to pay bills within the past 12 months, 2011 (send money, receive money) Control Variables: Mobile cellular subscriptions per 1000 adults, 2011 and 2010 GDP, 2011 and 2010 Depositors with commercial banks (per 1000 adults), 2011 and 2010 Borrowers with commercial banks (per 1000 adults), 2011 and 2010 Rural population, 2011 and 2010 Use of mobile banking= B1+ Bank outreach + x + error Variables What are the barriers to access? “It’s no longer about the phone itself, but about how it is used, and the content and applications that mobile phones open.” Data Sources HYPOTHESIS: When traditional consumer banking services are at a low level in a country, people increase their mobile technology use to conduct consumer financial transactions.

Transcript: Chapter 1 1.1. Background of the study Campylobacter jejuni is a bacterium that behaves as a commensal in the chicken gut. Though this bacterium is a part of the natural flora of a flock’s body, it becomes pathogenic as it reaches its human host through ingestion of poultry products. Campylobacter jejuni can also be easily transmitted from one flock to another that therefore lead to a larger number of positive flocks capable of infecting humans. Several strategies have been applied to reduce Campylobacter count on poultry, including attempts to eliminate Campylobacter from the farms in order to help control shedding of Campylobacter before it is attained by humans (Zoete et al. 2007). Poultry feeds are given daily to chicken for growth and survival, along with this, it must be noted that one of the easiest way to be infected by bacteria is through ingestion of contaminated feeds. Therefore, examination on poultry feeds should be done in order to know if it causes an increased prevalence of these microorganisms. Development of resistance in zoonotic bacteria appears to be primarily driven by the utilization of antibiotics in contemporary intensive animal production for therapy and prevention of diseases (Pezzotti et al. 2002). Making use of antibiotics in the case of poultry, which is the major reservoir of Campylobacter jejuni, may possibly lead to the selection of resistant strains. There is a rising level of resistance to antibiotics among Campylobacter and was considered as an emerging public health problem in human bacterial illness (Rodrigo et al. 2005). Observing the drug resistance of these strains has developed into of prime significance and management of these species would yield a positive impact on the improvement of food safety (Mackiw et al. 2011). Campylobacter is regarded to be the major contributory pathogen of food borne gastrointestinal diseases around the world (Ganan et al. 2011). In fact, the reported cases of Campylobacter infection have a higher record than other food pathogens such as Salmonella, Shigella and Escherichia coli in many regions. Most common indications of the Campylobacter infection particularly Campylobacter jejuni comprises diarrhea which is often bloody, abdominal pain, and fever. A small percentage of chronic long-term complications are reactive arthritis and peripheral neuropathies, Guillain-Barré and Miller Fisher syndrome (Ansari-Lari et al. 2010). Transmission happens by ingestion of contaminated poultry products (Hariharan et al. 2008). The study will prospectively determine the prevalence of Campylobacter jejuni in commercial and recycled poultry feeds and investigate the multi-resistance antibiotic patterns of the isolates. 1.2. Theoretical Framework 1.3. Statement of the Problem This study will aim to detect Campylobacter jejuni in commercial and recycled poultry feeds and its antibiotic multi-resistance pattern. Specifically, it will aim to answer the following questions. 1.3.1. What is the prevalence of Campylobacter jejuni in recycled and commercial poultry feeds? 1.3.2. Is there a difference between the Campylobacter jejuni count isolated from commercial poultry feeds and recycled poultry feeds? 1.3.3. What is the prevalence of antibiotic multi-resistance Campylobacter jejuni in commercial and recycled poultry feeds? 1.4. Scope and Delimitations The study will focus on the prevalence of Campylobacter jejuni in commercial and recycled poultry feeds. Polymerase chain reaction will be used in order to detect the prevalence of Campylobacter in poultry feeds using a gene specific hipO of C. jejuni. It will also center on the occurrence of C. jejuni strains that are resistant to the commonly used nalidixic acid, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, tetracycline and doxycycline employed for antibacterial action. Gel electrophoresis will be used for comparison. Disc diffusion assay will determine the antibiotic multi-resistance patterns of the Campylobacter jejuni isolates. Hence, other sources of C. jejuni like raw meat and feces are not part of the study as well as its resistance to other utilized antibiotic. 1.5. Significance of the Study Chapter 3 3 PREVALENCE OF Campylobacter jejuni IN COMMERCIAL AND RECYCLED POULTRY FEEDS AND ITS ANTIBIOTIC MULTI-RESISTANCE PATTERN Mae Kristine A. Cervantes Shannen Valerie P. Valerio Future Researchers Total genomic DNA will be isolated using Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Promega USA) according to the manufacturer’s instruction. Briefly, the enriched suspension will be centrifuged at 8,000 rpm for 5 min. The pellet was resuspended in 600 µL nuclei lysis solution and incubated at 80°C for 5 min. The cell lysate will be mixed with 3 µL RNase and incubated at 37°C for 1 hr. The RNase-treated cell lysate will be vortexed with 200 µL protein precipitation solution for 20 min and will be incubated on ice for 5 min. The suspension will be centrifuged at 14,000 rpm for 5 min. The DNA will be precipitated by adding equal volume of
