HIV/AIDs This paper explores a global infectious disease, HIV/AIDs, to make a recommendation on prevention strategies of an outbreak. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a disease that attacks the body’s immune system making it incapable of fighting the infection and other illnesses. The virus which scientists believe came from a chimpanzee in around 1920 was only known in 981 when it spread out to many people. Although the origin is Congo, an outbreak started in America, Spain, Swaziland, and France. This paper covers the disease development and spreading with exact years of occurrence. The study also explores HIV epidemiologic triage, revealing that it spreads through ordinary social behaviors such as sex and sharing of needles. HIV requirescontact of body fluids, including blood, virginal discharge, and semen, to pass from one person to another. The disease uniqueness as the paper explores attracts stigma, and fear creating a significant impact on the normal operations in schools, governments, and hospitals. There is, therefore,the need to have education and campaigns about HIV prevention and transmission, as the paper recommends to prevent an outbreak. Keywords:…
Basic Measurement Concepts Student X’s assessment data reflect the value underneath which the scores of the 24 students fall at the classroom level. It indicates that nearly all the students have scored less than 62% score. The 96th percentile is the score beneath which 96% of all the students are found. Proportionately, 4% of the student’s results should be found above the 96th percentile. From the calculation, 4% x 26 = 1.04, it is definite that one student is above student X in terms of score and by a far range from the majority 96%. Therefore, the formative assessment of data for student X will determine the instructional interventions and adjustments to be used in class by the tutor (Dixson & Worrell, 2016). The presentation of Student X’s assessment data is a percentile or % correct matter to indicate the relativity to the 100% potential of the scores. The percentile indicates the correspondence to the confidence interval of the students’ results (Miller, 2020). Student X score was chosen as the reference percentile since the student’s score was closer to the other studstudents’ge yet high…
Visual text A visual text may be regarded as one of the fancy ways of saying an image. This is when it is related to analyzing texts as well as English (Wilson, 2017). Whatever being examined is usually in the visual medium. Examples of the visible text include pictures, covers, posters, and frames from videos and movies. There are several kinds of techniques that accompany visual texts. His first technique is that different colors may have different meanings and influence on the message being communicated. The text may also have lighting and vectors together with a gaze that must be thoroughly considered while analyzing the text. Allusions may also be a part of visual text. They are references to other images that include art, films, religious icons, and pop culture (Cappello and walker, 2016).

Cuba and Venezuela Cuba is one of the successful western countries in many parameters. Having invested in technology, education, medical field, and military, Cuba’s becomes an important arsenal to the Latin America. Cuba helps Latin America in uplifting the economy through various integration mechanisms. Being a member of CELAC board, Cuba assimilated Latin America in the trade belt.

Other factors that can translate to behavior change include anxiety, PSTD, bipolar disorder, and depression (Sailor, Dunlap, Sugai, & Horner, 2008).

Generalized behavior change significantly entails the aspect of systematic planning. The initial step subject to the promotion of generalized behavior change is the selection of target behaviors that are subject to meeting the natural existing reinforcement contingencies. The five guiding principles include the minimization as much as possible subject to the need of generalization, conducting generalization probes prior to the instruction, during and after, the involvement of significant others when possible, the promotion of generalized behavior change subject to the least costly, least intrusive approaches, and contrive intervention approaches required with subject…

Anthony Bourdain revealed the dark side of kitchens, and this is concerning addiction and mental health issues. A man who was the voice of restaurant professionals, earned excellent respect ad admiration from people in the industry, was a victim of substance abuse. Bourdain’s struggle with substance use was something that he talked openly but battled less with depression. The main question is if such as prominent person could end his life, what was it like for an average chef or a line cook who experienced the challenge Bourdain did? A more open discussion about mental health and substance abuse in the restaurant industry is necessary. The purpose of this paper is to explain substance abuse in the food or restaurant industry. Substance Abuse in the Restaurant Industry Statistically, about 8% of fulltime employees at the age of 10 to 64 use alcohol heavily in a month. A portion of these populations also use illicit drugs, and more than 9% of workers in a state like the US have a substance use problem. The majority of these mentally challenged people work…
Discussion Response on implementation of strategies by the stock market Response 1 Hello Mahima Aka Kittu Gupta I concur with you about the discussion on strategies that are implemented with substitutes that are owned in the stock market. Implementing a strategy like promotional pricing is convincing to customers since it tends to revolve around price alterations. Promotion makes a brand to be known by my customers who are seeking cheap and quality products. Customers’ attention is easily captured by discounts and low pricing of products and services. Subsequently, psychological pricing is another strategy that tries to bring subconscious awareness that has an influence on customers (Dangelico & Vocalelli, 2017). In this case, the company tries to play around with the price the whole number making it look as if it is lower than the expected value by a small margin. Moreover, brand sales and strategizing, you can add that both strategies can be combined together to bring a revolution in market stock hence brand sustainability. Reference Dangelico, R.…
