    This week for PLN I read Dakota Access Pipeline: What's at stake? by Holly Yang. Why this topic is blowing up is because where Native American tribes live the government approved a pipeline to be built and where the pipeline is going to be constructed invades the native American's land. Some background of the Dakota Pipeline is it is a 1,172-mile pipeline would stretch from the oil-rich Bakken Formation to the southeast into South Dakota, Iowa, and Illinois. The Army Corps of Engineers approved the project then Standing Rock Sioux tribe sued the Corps because it would threaten the tribe environmentally and economically. Some people are arguing that they need the pipeline because it will be an economic boom but on the other hand, people are…

    The United States government possesses a long history of double-crossing Native Americans. The most recent event is the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline currently being protested by the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and their supporters. Though the pipeline is more than halfway completed, protestor's have held their ground since April of 2016, and show no sign of losing momentum. The tribe argues construction of the pipeline has already bulldozed into the sacred burial grounds of their ancestors, and further digging will result in irreparable damage to historical, religious and cultural sites. Along with the possible contamination of the Missouri River in case of a leak or oil spill. Followed by The Army Corp of Engineers, responsible of approving the final permits for the pipeline, failing to properly consult with the tribe beforehand. The pipeline has been momentarily halted, while…

    Todd C. Frankel discusses rare metal mining, and specifically cobalt, in his article, “The Cobalt Pipeline.” Cobalt, an often overlooked element, is a vital component in today’s smartphones, laptops, electric vehicles, and many other modern day gadgets. Due to the increasing demand for cobalt, “an estimated 100,000 cobalt miners in Congo use hand tools to dig hundreds of feet underground with little oversight and few safety measures.” This is the stark reality of the mining process. There are also new concerns regarding the adverse health effects of working in the mines. Studies have supported that there is a correlation between spending time in the mines and thyroid conditions, breathing problems, and most importantly, birth defects in their…

    There are many issues in my community that affect the citizens. One issue of my local community that affects the citizens is the administration of roads and highways. A current issue for my township is the PennEast Pipeline. The PennEast Pipeline is a 118-mile underground pipeline that will stretch from Luzerne County, Pa., to Mercer County, N.J., is proposed to go through Upper Nazareth. This pipeline is expected to affect six miles of township roads in my community and neighboring communities. My local community will be voting on whether or not to allow the creation of this pipeline. I chose this issue because it will have a major impact on the area in which I live.…

    Based on patient signs and symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation and abdominal severe gas, which is relieved with bowel movements,1 the client has IBS, The patient also, presents with tongue slightly thickened with scalloped edges which indicate a low thyroid, hormonal imbalance, liver disease and weak immune system2. Also, her physical signs of dark circle under eye may possibly demonstrate the potential overactive immune system and food allergies, which could cause an abnormally permeable mucus membrane in the gut known as “leaky gut”. However, I would recommend the patient to change her diet to the elimination diet and include anti-inflammatory diet, to enable the gut to heal and achieve optimal health. The lab test, I would recommend…

    Plants consume light for energy by converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, known as a process called photosynthesis. By adding hydrogen ions to carbon dioxide C-H bonds are made that hold energy which is released in mitochondrion, an organelle. This process of the release of energy is known as respiration. Without respiration, photosynthesis would not be able to perform. The process of photosynthesis is able to perform its duties with the help of an organelle called chloroplast as well. Within the chloroplasts lie thylakoids, a membrane system that contains pigments which are used to capture light energy. Photosynthesis is also responsible for reducing carbon dioxide into glucose, because reducing power is present. Reducing power is made after electrons get excited in the chlorophyll molecule. To carry out the process of reducing carbon dioxide into glucose, hydrogen ions must be added to the carbon of carbon dioxide where ATP and NADPH (reducing power) are used to convert carbon dioxide to sugar, all of which takes place in the chloroplast. The part of photosynthesis that converts carbon dioxide to sugar is known as Calvin Cycle of Dark reaction. For this lab, we will test the process of photosynthesis by using Spinach leaves to observe the Hill Reaction. The Hill Reaction tests water splitting in photosynthesis, and can be observed when a color change occurs. This color change will occur when a molecule is split and electrons are removed from molecular oxygen and hydrogen ions. DCIP combined with sucrose or ethanol spinach mixtures, will give either a green color (indicating photosynthesis occurred) or no color at all (indicating no photosynthesis occurred), depending on the factors and environments to which the mixtures will be tested.…

    The effect of elevated temperatures on the coated carbon TRC tensile strength is shown in Figure 10. The mean results of strength, strain and elastic modulus (at 7 days of age + heating and cooling process) are given in Table 4. The values, as well as the standard deviations, refer to three TRC test specimens. As well as in the uncoated carbon TRC, a strain-hardening behavior is clearly observed in the stress-strain curves up to 400°C. Although not impregnated by matrix, the coated carbon TRC presented higher tensile strength than the uncoated TRC at room temperature (Figure 10a). This behavior occurs due to the coating’s impregnation which acts mechanically activating equally part of the filaments present in the carbon yarns. In the uncoated…

    In this article the influence of the important resistance spot welding process parameters on the shear-tensile strength of the welded joints of Inconel alloy 625 was investigated. Experimental study using full factorial design of the welding current, welding time, and electrode force parameters was conducted. In order to identify the influence of each parameter and their interaction a general linear model and a second order model using response surface method was developed. Nonlinear correlation was observed between the welding process parameters and spot weld strength based on the regression outcomes. To raise the accuracy of the statistical model, the artificial neural network was employed. The R2 equal to 98.11% of the model confirmed the…
