Lesson 1: Introduction to Sports Nutrition & Supplementation

## I. Overview
Sports nutrition is an essential aspect of athletic performance and overall health. Proper nutrition can help athletes optimize their training, recovery, and overall well-being. In this lesson, we will introduce the basics of sports nutrition and supplementation, including the importance of macronutrients, micronutrients, and hydration. We will also debunk common myths and misconceptions about sports nutrition.

## II. Macronutrients
Macronutrients are essential nutrients that our bodies need in large amounts to function properly. They include carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.

A. Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the body's primary source of energy. They are found in foods such as bread, pasta, rice, and fruits. Athletes require more carbohydrates than non-athletes because they use up energy more quickly during exercise.

B. Proteins
Proteins are essential for building and repairing muscles, tissues, and organs. They are found in foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. Athletes require more protein than non-athletes to support their increased muscle mass and repair.

C. Fats
Fats are essential for hormone production, cell membrane function, and energy storage. They are found in foods such as nuts, seeds, avocados, and olive oil. While fats are not a primary source of energy during exercise, they are still important for overall health and well-being.

## III. Micronutrients
Micronutrients are essential nutrients that our bodies need in small amounts to function properly. They include vitamins and minerals.

A. Vitamins
Vitamins are essential for various bodily functions, including immune system function, energy metabolism, and bone health. Athletes require more vitamins than non-athletes because they may lose more vitamins through sweat and urine during exercise.

B. Minerals
Minerals are essential for bone health, muscle function, and energy metabolism. Athletes require more minerals than non-athletes because they may lose more minerals through sweat and urine during exercise.

## IV. Hydration
Hydration is essential for optimal athletic performance and overall health. Athletes require more water than non-athletes because they lose more water through sweat during exercise.

A. Water Intake
Athletes should aim to drink 2-3 times their body weight in ounces of water per day. For example, if you weigh 150 pounds, you should aim to drink 300-450 ounces of water per day.

B. Electrolytes
Electrolytes are minerals that help regulate fluid balance and muscle function. Athletes lose electrolytes through sweat during exercise, so they should consume electrolyte-rich foods or supplements to maintain proper electrolyte balance.

## V. Myths and Misconceptions
There are many myths and misconceptions about sports nutrition. Here are some common ones:

A. Carbohydrates make you fat
While carbohydrates can contribute to weight gain if consumed in excess, they are not inherently fattening. In fact, carbohydrates are essential for optimal athletic performance.

B. Protein powders are the best source of protein
While protein powders can be a convenient source of protein, they are not necessarily the best source. Whole foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products provide more nutrients and are often more bioavailable.

C. Supplements can replace a balanced diet
Supplements should not be used as a replacement for a balanced diet. They are meant to supplement a healthy diet and provide additional nutrients.

## VI. Glossary
- Macronutrients: Nutrients required in large amounts for energy, growth, and cellular repair.
- Micronutrients: Nutrients required in small amounts for proper bodily function.
- Carbohydrates: A macronutrient that provides energy for the body.
- Proteins: A macronutrient that helps build and repair muscles, tissues, and organs.

8 Reckless Actions Indonesia Motorcyclists Do

First time to Indonesia? If yes, then it can be expected that you will be shocked with what you would see during in Indonesia. The possible cause of your shock may not come from the beauty of Indonesia landscape. Nor, it will be by the amazing traditional dance in Bali. One thing that will surely will startle in disgusting mode is about reckless actions Indonesia motorcyclists do on streets.

Well. You should not be surprised with this situation.Even, you should expect to see by yourselves the actions.

Indonesia has recorded itself as one of the countries that have large number of motorcycle ownership. In 2015, based on statistic, there are more than 80 million motorized two wheeler vehicles in this country. This means, with a population of approximately 250 million people, the ratio of motorbike ownership in Indonesia is 3.1 : 1, one motorcycle for every 3.1 persons.

Really high number.

The number increases rapidly every year. More than 6 million motorbikes are sold every year. With no limitation of allowed age of the vehicle, the population will surely raise annually.

Unfortunately, the rapid growth in number is not accompanied with more mature attitude of motorcycle owners when they ride on streets. They are getting careless, ignorant, and selfish.

During Patuh Jaya raid conducted by Jakarta Police in May 2016, within two weeks, it was recorded more than 77.800 traffic violation done by motorcyclists.This is all violation in Jakarta city only and not including other cities.

This should show how poor the discipline of Indonesia motorcyclists. So poor.

Therefore, like or not, while you are here, I am quite sure that you will see reckless actions Indonesia motorcyclists do. Even if you only stay for one night or two, especially in big cities like Jakarta. It doesn’t mean you can not meet the same in smaller cities.

What kind of careless, and annoying actions that Indonesia motorbike riders usually do, you can read on the below.

8 Reckless Actions Indonesia Motorcyclists Do (everyday!)

I will summarize what reckless actions Indonesia motorcyclists do everyday based on what I see in daily life. It is so often that even I could even take some pictures while they were on action.

1. Under Age Riders

Under Age motorcycxlist

Law says that the minimum age to obtain a riding license in Indonesia is 17 years. However, in reality you can see under age riders almost everywhere. You may even find elementary students speeding on motorbikes, almost everywhere.

This has become a phenomenon in Indonesia because the number of undr age rides seem to raise in parallel with the increase of motorbike numbers. Indonesia parents seem to become lazier and careless year by year. Also, parents look to be proud if their under age children has been able to ride a motorcycle at their early age.

2. Not using helmet

This has become quite a habit. Helmet is not considered to be obligatory for motorcycle riding. The law has clearly mentioned that using a helmet, for a rider or a pillion. Even, under the same law, it’s been stated the standard of helmet to be used.

Unfortunately, it seems many of Indonesia motorcycle users have their own opinion. The ohelmet is considered as an accessories only, not compulsory.

3. Traffic Light Disobedience

Traffic light is one package of standardized symbols applied all over the world. Not only in Indonesia. Green means “you can go”. Yellow is “slow down your vehicle”. Red is “stop”. So simple.

However, not in Indonesia. Many motorcyclists have their own concept of traffic light. Yellow is interpreted as “hit the gas, there is still a chance”. Red means “I don’t see it”. Green “this is my turn”.

Don’t expect to see vehicles stop behind the white line. The interpretation is there is no line, someone stupid has painted something useless here.

4. Smoking while riding

Indonesia has also high population of smokers. Unfortunately, many of the smokers also own motorcycles, then those two facts create a new habit, smoking while riding.

It is not seldom to see a rider with one hand on his/her vehicle’s handlebar and the other hand on his mouth holds a cigarette. Smoke comes out from his mouth.

When the cigarette is finished, he will throw the cigarette butt while it is still burning anywhere. Don’t expect them to care that the burning cigarette butt can hurt someone.

5. Riding On Pavement/Sidewalk

Pavement or sidewalk is a place where pedestrians can walk. Again, this is a common sense and what laws of all countries around the world say. Not only in Indonesia.

Again, unfortunately, this concept seems to be different from what riders in Indonesia have. A pavement or sidewalk is understood to be “the best place to avoid traffic”.

They often to run on sidewalks without feeling guilty. They will get angry if there are pedestrians in front of them and consider them to block their way. You should not be surprised to hear them honking at you in Jakarta, or any other cities.

This has been a major concern and sometime there are brave pedestrians fight them back as shown in this link. The video is quite funny also because the angry pedestrian is a boy.

6. Contra Flow Riding

One way street means that the traffic flow must go only to one direction. However, lacy motorcyclists do not agree with this interpretation. This mean “it is not the efficient way and stupid to be followed. There is no one way street or road”.

Contra flow riding is one of the most reckless actions Indonesia motorcyclists do everyday. Their action has caused a lot of accidents with fatality. Sigh, unfortunately, until now, it has been considered as common, everywhere.

7. Riding in a zig zag

Jakarta traffic is overcrowded. Definitely. Almost everybody knows, even foreigners. One of things that make it worse is the attitude of motorcyclists.

Even in a crowded street, they tend to exploit their small size two wheeler to find gaps between cars and/or other motorbikes. It is a common thing to see motorcyclists swing from right to left, left to right, and back to move to left again. Riding in zig zag.

This bad habit has caused many unrecorded minor accident between cars and motorbikes.

8. Overloaded

A motorcycle is designed to carry only one rider and one pillion. Not more. However, probably due to efficiency, this vehicle is often loaded by more than two persons. Three is quite common but it’s not seldom also 4 persons on one motorbike.

Or, the vehicle is loaded with very heavy cargo.

Those are all reckless actions Indonesia motorcyclists do. It is likely that you may find a combination of some recklessness on one moment.

Lesson: Understanding Reckless Actions of Indonesian Motorcyclists

Introduction:
Indonesia is known for its unique culture, beautiful landscapes, and friendly people. However, one thing that might surprise visitors is the reckless actions of some Indonesian motorcyclists. In this lesson, we will explore the reasons behind these actions and discuss ways to stay safe on the roads.

Section 1: Understanding the Reasons Behind Reckless Actions

Topic 1: Traffic Congestion
One of the main reasons why some Indonesian motorcyclists engage in reckless behavior is due to the heavy traffic congestion in major cities like Jakarta, Surabaya, and Bandung. With millions of people using motorcycles as their primary mode of transportation, the roads can become extremely crowded, leading to frustration and impatience among drivers.

Topic 2: Lack of Traffic Rules Enforcement
Another reason for reckless actions is the lack of enforcement of traffic rules in Indonesia. Many motorcyclists ignore basic safety measures such as wearing helmets or using turn signals because they believe they won't be penalized for doing so. This creates an environment where drivers feel they can get away with risky behavior.

Topic 3: Ignorance of the Law
Some Indonesian motorcyclists may not be aware of the traffic laws in their country. They may not understand the importance of following traffic signals or maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles. This ignorance can lead to dangerous driving habits.

Section 2: Staying Safe on Indonesian Roads

Topic 1: Always Wear a Helmet
One of the best ways to protect yourself while riding a motorcycle in Indonesia is by always wearing a helmet. This simple action can significantly reduce the risk of head injuries in case of an accident.

Topic 2: Follow Traffic Rules
Even if others are not following traffic rules, make sure to follow them yourself. Use turn signals, wear a helmet, and obey speed limits. By doing so, you can help reduce the number of accidents on the roads.

Topic 3: Be Aware of Your Surroundings
Always be aware of your surroundings while riding a motorcycle in Indonesia. Keep an eye out for other vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. Be especially cautious when driving in areas with heavy traffic or poor road conditions.

Section 3: Conclusion

In conclusion, understanding the reasons behind reckless actions of Indonesian motorcyclists can help visitors stay safe on the roads. By always wearing a helmet, following traffic rules, and being aware of your surroundings, you can significantly reduce the risk of accidents. Remember, even if others are not following traffic rules, you should still follow them yourself to help create a safer environment for everyone on the roads.

[Preventive dentistry 6. Prevention of caries in frail older people].
Many older people have a bad oral health, with (root) caries a prevalent cause. Alarming results of research projects raise the question whether sufficient preventive measures are being taken to prevent the development and progress of (root) caries in frail older people. A review of the recent literature revealed that in frail older people and physically or cognitively impaired adults, daily use of a 5,000 ppm fluoride toothpaste and quarterly application of chlorhexidine or sodium fluoride can decrease by half the risk of root caries. In the Netherlands, toothpaste containing 5,000 ppm fluoride is not (yet) on the market. At the present time, only the advice brochure 'Prevention of root caries' is available. Another measure to prevent deterioration of oral health among frail older people is paying attention to frail older people who do not visit their dentist on a regular basis due to physical limitations and care dependency. When this is the case, it is necessary to intensify professional oral healthcare with instructions to personal caregivers and professional care providers in order to fight (root) caries.

textbook:
Lesson: Preventing Root Caries in Frail Older People
Introduction:
Root caries is a common dental problem that affects many older adults, especially those who are frail or have cognitive or physical impairments. This lesson will teach you about the prevention of root caries in frail older people.
Section 1: Understanding Root Caries
Root caries is a type of tooth decay that affects the roots of teeth. It is caused by bacteria that produce acids that eat away at the tooth enamel and dentin. Root caries can lead to tooth loss and other dental problems.
Section 2: Preventing Root Caries
There are several steps you can take to prevent root caries:
1. Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste. Fluoride helps to strengthen your tooth enamel and prevent tooth decay.
2. Floss your teeth every day to remove food particles and bacteria from between your teeth and under your gum line.
3. Visit your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings. Your dentist can detect early signs of root caries and treat them before they become more serious.
4. Eat a balanced diet that is low in sugar. Sugar feeds the bacteria that cause tooth decay, so limiting your sugar intake can help prevent root caries.
Section 3: Preventing Root Caries in Frail Older People
Frail older people may have difficulty brushing and flossing their teeth, which can make them more susceptible to root caries. Here are some additional steps you can take to prevent root caries in frail older people:
1. Encourage the use of a fluoride toothpaste with 5,000 ppm. This strength of fluoride toothpaste has been shown to be effective in preventing root caries in frail older people.
2. Provide oral hygiene assistance. If the frail older person is unable to brush or floss their teeth, you can assist them with oral hygiene tasks such as using a mouthwash or cleaning their teeth with a cloth.
3. Monitor their oral health. Regularly check the frail older person's teeth and gums for signs of decay or infection. If you notice any problems, contact their dentist immediately.
Conclusion:
Preventing root caries in frail older people is important for maintaining their overall health and well-being. By taking steps to prevent root caries, you can help protect their teeth and gums from decay and infection. Remember to encourage the use of fluoride toothpaste with 5,000 ppm, provide oral hygiene assistance if needed, and monitor their oral health regularly.

Various manufacturing processes expose chamber components and their coating materials to high temperatures, high energy plasma, a mixture of corrosive gases, high stress, and combinations thereof. Rare earth oxides are frequently used in chamber component manufacturing due to their resistance to erosion from plasma etch chemistries. However, exposure of rare earth oxides to fluorine based plasma can cause cracking and shedding of particles onto wafers.
Furthermore, oxide coatings such as Y2O3 are permeable to water and can cause the adsorption of water. As a result, exposure of oxide coatings such as Y2O3 coatings to air generally causes a brittle M(OH) layer (e.g., a Y(OH)3 layer) to form at a surface of the oxide coating, where M is a metal. Tests have shown the presence of multiple —OH groups at the surface of Y2O3 coatings exposed to air. The M(OH) layer is brittle and can shed particles onto processed wafers. Additionally, the M(OH) layer causes increased leakage current in the metal oxide coating (e.g., in the Y2O3 coating).
In some instances YF3 has been used as a coating for chamber components. Use of the YF3 coating can mitigate the issue of yttrium based particles on processed wafers. However, applying a YF3 coating to chamber components of an etch reactor has been shown to cause a significant etch rate drop (e.g., an etch rate drop of as much as 60%), process drift and chamber matching issues.

- Rare earth oxides are often used in chamber component manufacturing due to their resistance to erosion from plasma etch chemistries
- However, exposure of rare earth oxides to fluorine-based plasma can cause cracking and shedding of particles onto wafers
- Furthermore, oxide coatings such as Y2O3 are permeable to water and can cause the adsorption of water
- Exposure of oxide coatings such as Y2O3 coatings to air generally causes a brittle M(OH) layer (e.g., a Y(OH)3 layer) to form at a surface of the oxide coating, where M is a metal
- Tests have shown the presence of multiple -OH groups at the surface of Y2O3 coatings exposed to air
- The M(OH) layer is brittle and can shed particles onto processed wafers
- Additionally, the M(OH) layer causes increased leakage current in the manufacturing process

This invention relates to safety devices for straight ladders and extension ladders, more particularly, a ladder safety accessory kit that levels, stabilizes and holds a ladder in place during use, thereby ensuring the safety of a user while climbing and/or performing work while on the ladder.
Many jobs require the use of ladders to reach areas that are not accessible or within reach of a person standing on the ground. Ladders are commonly used to climb onto roofs of houses and other buildings. Ladders are also used to perform jobs, such as painting, washing windows and so forth. Normally, the bottom portion of the ladder rests on the ground or other similar horizontal surface and the upper end of the ladder typically leans against the vertical wall surface of a building or work surface so that the ladder is oriented at an angle which makes it easy and safe for a user to climb up and down. The use of ladders can be very dangerous and is known to be a major cause of accidents. When a ladder is positioned against a structure, it is essential that the ladder be properly angled to prevent the base of the ladder from slipping. However, not every structure is a flat surface and the ground is not always perfectly level. In addition, most bases and or upper portions of most ladders are not adjustable and thus, cannot be adapted for use on a slanted ground or oddly shaped structure. Furthermore, users currently have no way to easily determine if a ladder is horizontally level and placed at a safe angle in relation to a structure. An even further problem with current ladders is the lack of storage space for tools and other items. Although, many ladders do provide trays for placing tools and other items while working on the ladder, these trays are only flat surfaces that do not secure the tools and/or prevent the tools from accidentally falling to the ground.
Therefore, a need exists for a ladder safety accessory kit that provides an upper stabilizer assembly for adjusting the top portion of a ladder to compensate and/or lock onto different shaped structures, a lower stabilizer assembly for adjusting the bottom portion of the ladder to compensate for uneven ground, a leveling measurement device for determining that the ladder is angled correctly and is level and a storage tray for safely storing tools and other items while working on the ladder.

Lesson: Introduction to PNG Image Format

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
PNG is a graphics file format that supports true color images and transparency. It was developed as a replacement for GIF and TIFF formats and is widely used on the web.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
To understand how PNG works, let's look at an example. Suppose we have an image of a cat. We can save this image in PNG format and add a transparent background so that when we display it on a website, the background of the webpage shows through. This is done using the alpha channel of the PNG image.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
Now let's consider a scenario where we want to create a web application that displays images. We can use PNG images for our application because they support true color and transparency. This means that we can create images with different colors and add a transparent background to make them blend seamlessly into our webpage.

## Conclusion
In this lesson, we learned about the PNG image format, its features, and how it can be used in practical applications. We also saw how to install the necessary packages to develop programs that manipulate PNG files. By understanding the concepts behind PNG, we can apply these skills to other image formats and file types as well.

Further evidence of the development of delayed-type autoimmunity against arterial vessel-wall antigens following acute hypertensive damage to arterial vessels in rats.
Acute hypertensive damage to arterial vessels was induced by intravenous injections of hypertension. The in vitro immunological method of the agarose migration technique was used for demonstration of delayed-type autoimmunity against arterial vessel-wall antigens following the damage of the arterial vessels. By means of this technique it was demonstrated that the migration indices from the rats with induced hypertension differed significantly from the control rats, P less than 0.005. This means that an autoimmunity of the delayed type had developed after the hypertensive damage to the arterial vessels. The autoimmunity was tissue specific.

Lesson: Introduction to Immunology

**Objective:** To introduce students to the basics of immunology and its role in the body's defense mechanism against foreign substances.

**Glossary:**
- Immunology: the study of the immune system and its response to foreign substances.
- Antigen: a foreign substance that triggers an immune response.
- Autoimmunity: a condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own cells and tissues.
- Hypertension: abnormally high blood pressure.
- Agarose migration technique: a laboratory method used to demonstrate the movement of cells or particles in a gel matrix.

**Section 1: Introduction to Immunology**

Immunology is the study of the immune system, which is the body's defense mechanism against foreign substances such as bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. The immune system is made up of various cells, proteins, and organs that work together to protect the body from infections and diseases.

**Section 2: Autoimmunity**

Autoimmunity is a condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own cells and tissues. This can occur due to various reasons such as genetic factors, environmental triggers, or errors in the immune system's functioning. Autoimmune diseases include rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis.

**Section 3: Experiment to Demonstrate Delayed-Type Autoimmunity**

In a study conducted on rats, acute hypertensive damage to arterial vessels was induced by intravenous injections of hypertension. The in vitro immunological method of the agarose migration technique was used to demonstrate delayed-type autoimmunity against arterial vessel-wall antigens following the damage of the arterial vessels.

**Section 4: Results and Conclusion**

By means of the agarose migration technique, it was demonstrated that the migration indices from the rats with induced hypertension differed significantly from the control rats, P less than 0.005. This means that an autoimmunity of the delayed type had developed after the hypertensive damage to the arterial vessels. The autoimmunity was tissue specific.

**Conclusion:**

This experiment demonstrated the development of delayed-type autoimmunity against arterial vessel-wall antigens following acute hypertensive damage to arterial vessels in rats. It highlights the importance of studying immunology and understanding the body's defense mechanisms against foreign substances.

Lesson Title: Understanding Balsamic Vinegar

Introduction:
Balsamic vinegar is a popular ingredient in many cuisines worldwide. It is made from the fermentation of grape juice, similar to wine. However, unlike wine, balsamic vinegar is aged for several years, giving it a unique flavor profile. In this lesson, we will learn about the different types of balsamic vinegar, their uses, and how to choose the right one for your needs.

Section 1: Types of Balsamic Vinegar

1. Traditional Balsamic Vinegar (Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale)
Traditional balsamic vinegar is made from the pressed juice of white Trebbiano grapes. It is aged for at least 12 years in wooden barrels, typically made from oak, chestnut, or mulberry wood. This type of balsamic vinegar is produced in the Modena region of Italy and is the most expensive and sought-after variety.

2. Condiment Balsamic Vinegar (Aceto Balsamico di Modena)
Condiment balsamic vinegar is also made in the Modena region but is not aged as long as traditional balsamic vinegar. It is typically aged for at least 3 months but no longer than 3 years. This type of balsamic vinegar is less expensive than traditional balsamic vinegar but still has a rich flavor profile.

3. Caramelized Balsamic Vinegar
Caramelized balsamic vinegar is made by heating traditional balsamic vinegar until it becomes syrupy and caramelized. This type of balsamic vinegar is used as a glaze for meats or drizzled over salads and vegetables.

Section 2: Uses of Balsamic Vinegar

Balsamic vinegar is a versatile ingredient that can be used in many different dishes. Here are some common uses:

1. Dressing for salads
2. Marinades for meats and vegetables
3. Glaze for roasted meats and vegetables
4. Sauce for pasta dishes
5. Dip for bread and crackers
6. Flavoring for soups and stews
7. Topping for pizza

Section 3: Choosing the Right Balsamic Vinegar

When choosing a balsamic vinegar, consider the following factors:

1. Type of balsamic vinegar (traditional or condiment)
2. Aging process (length of time aged)
3. Origin (Italy)
4. Brand reputation

Conclusion:
In conclusion, balsamic vinegar is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can enhance the flavor of many dishes. By understanding the different types of balsamic vinegar, their uses, and how to choose the right one for your needs, you can become a balsamic vinegar expert and create delicious dishes that impress your friends and family.
