Lesson: Introduction to Job Searching
## Section 1: Understanding the Job Search Process
In this section, we will cover the basics of job searching, including understanding the process, identifying your goals, and finding job opportunities.
### Subsection 1.1: Understanding the Job Search Process
The job search process can be daunting, but by breaking it down into smaller steps, it becomes more manageable. Here are the steps involved in the job search process:
1. Identify your goals: Before you start searching for jobs, you need to know what you want. Do you want to work in a specific industry or for a particular company? Do you want to work remotely or in an office? Knowing your goals will help you focus your search and make it more effective.
2. Research companies: Once you know what you want, you need to research companies that match your goals. Look for companies that have a good reputation, offer competitive salaries, and have a strong presence in your desired industry.
3. Network: Networking is an important part of the job search process. Connect with people on LinkedIn, attend networking events, and join professional organizations to expand your network and learn about job opportunities.
4. Apply for jobs: Once you have identified your goals and researched companies, it's time to start applying for jobs. Use job boards, company career pages, and recruitment agencies to find job openings that match your skills and experience.
5. Prepare for interviews: If you make it through the initial screening process, you will likely be invited for an interview. Prepare for this by researching the company, practicing common interview questions, and dressing appropriately.
6. Follow up: After the interview, follow up with the company to thank them for the opportunity and reiterate your interest in the position.
### Subsection 1.2: Identifying Your Goals
Identifying your goals is an important step in the job search process. Take some time to think about what you want in a job, including:
1. Industry: Do you want to work in a specific industry, such as technology or healthcare?
2. Company: Do you have a preference for certain companies or types of companies, such as startups or large corporations?
3. Location: Are you willing to move for a job, or do you prefer to stay in your current location?
4. Salary: What salary range are you comfortable with?
5. Culture: What type of work environment do you thrive in? Do you prefer a fast-paced, collaborative culture or a more structured, traditional environment?

**Title:** Understanding Food Safety Regulations in Costa Rica

**Introduction:**

Food safety is a critical component of the global food supply chain. It ensures that the food we eat is safe for consumption and free from contamination. In this lesson, we will explore the food safety regulations in Costa Rica, which is a major exporter of food products to the United States and the European Union. We will also learn about the organizations responsible for enforcing these regulations and the importance of adhering to them.

**Section 1: Food Safety Regulations in Costa Rica**

The food safety regulations in Costa Rica are governed by the Ministry of Health (MOH) and the National Animal Health Service (SENASA). These organizations ensure that food products meet the required safety standards before they are exported to other countries. Some of the key regulations include:

- Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP): These practices ensure that food products are produced under hygienic conditions and are free from contamination.
- Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP): This system identifies potential hazards and establishes control points to prevent foodborne illnesses.
- Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) Measures: These measures aim to protect human, animal, and plant life from diseases and pests.

**Section 2: Importance of Adhering to Food Safety Regulations**

Adhering to food safety regulations is crucial for several reasons:

- Consumer Protection: Food safety regulations protect consumers from consuming contaminated food products that can cause illness or death.
- Trade Facilitation: Countries that adhere to food safety regulations can export their products to other countries without facing trade barriers.
- Economic Benefits: Adhering to food safety regulations can lead to increased market access and economic benefits for exporters.

**Section 3: Applying Food Safety Skills**

Understanding food safety regulations is essential for anyone involved in the food industry, including producers, processors, transporters, and retailers. By adhering to these regulations, you can ensure that your products are safe for consumption and meet the required standards. Here are some ways to apply your food safety skills:

- Conduct regular inspections of your production facilities to identify potential hazards and implement corrective actions.
- Train your employees on GMP and HACCP principles to ensure they understand the importance of food safety.
- Implement a robust traceability system to track your products from farm to table, making it easier to identify and address any issues that arise.

**Conclusion:**

In conclusion, understanding food safety regulations in Costa Rica is crucial for anyone involved in the food industry. By adhering to these regulations, you can ensure that your products are safe for consumption and meet the required standards. This knowledge can also be applied to other countries' food safety regulations, making it valuable for anyone interested in the global food supply chain.

Goldman Sachs overnight reported that its fourth-quarter profit had tripled. Credit:Getty Images Extraordinary moment It is the crystallisation of an extraordinary moment in the halls of US finance. Goldman, like other marquee banking companies, is hunting for new business as its traditional ones falter. Regulations rolled out since the 2008 financial crisis have put a crimp in deal-making, Wall Street's traditional expertise. The high-powered bond trading desks that generated most of Goldman's pre-crisis profits now make only a fraction of what they did before. Over the past year, Goldman executives have been preparing to introduce 401(k) accounts (employer-sponsored retirement savings accounts), loans for people saddled with credit card debt and new investment funds that can be purchased by anyone with an E-Trade account. It will all be online only. In fact, Goldman thinks one of its advantages will be that it does not have the historical baggage - read, expense - of traditional branches and tellers. All of this has prompted some head-scratching in the industry, given that Goldman has so little experience in the hotly competitive field of retail banking. Not least among the challenges: getting Americans to warm to a bank that has been maligned as a symbol of Wall Street greed during the 2008 crisis.

'The Nike of finance' At least one new customer dismissed that worry. "Of course they get blamed for stuff," said Daniel Sigal, a 24-year-old college student in the Los Angeles area who calls himself a Wall Street hopeful. But "Goldman Sachs is the Nike of finance," he said - a brand everyone knows. Its foray into banking is "very, very positive," he said. He also liked the 1.05 per cent interest rate on savings accounts that Goldman offered, which dwarfed the 0.01 per cent he was getting from Wells Fargo. The average is 0.54 per cent, according to Bankrate.com. Goldman will have to pull in many people like Sigal to make even a tiny difference in its annual revenue, which tends to be measured in the tens of billions of dollars. The senior Goldman executive overseeing all of this said that none of these businesses were lines that he could have imagined the firm getting involved in even five years ago. "We had an opportunity to take a clean sheet of paper and draw out what we might do," said that executive, Stephen Scherr, the chief of strategy for Goldman and the chief executive of its federally insured bank.

'Great potential' Before the crisis, Goldman did not even have a federally insured bank; it was forced to open one as a condition of receiving bailout funds during the financial crisis. Initially, the bank was viewed by executives as a drag. More recently, though, Goldman has come to view the bank as one of its brightest opportunities. "Over the years, it became clear that the bank had greater potential to help grow the firm," Scherr said. Behind the scenes, Goldman executives have been debating how far they want to expand their new retail offerings and if they eventually want to end up with something that would look more like a full-service online bank. The company is in the earliest stages, and it could back off if the initial experiments fail. So far, interest has been strong. Scherr said that the bank had opened tens of thousands of new accounts in its first few weeks, in addition to the 150,000 accounts it acquired from GE Capital. (Goldman bought the online banking arm of General Electric's financial services subsidiary this year, acquiring about $US16 billion in deposits as part of the deal.)

Surge of interest Although Goldman has a 50-person call centre in Iowa, it was unprepared for the surge of interest in its fledgling retail bank. Soon after the bank's debut, a columnist at The Wall Street Journal wrote about the many hiccups he encountered while trying to open an account, including error messages and confused call centre representatives. Goldman's' way forward is likely to be anything but easy, even with billions backing it. It faces lots of entrenched competitors and has almost no experience in the human elements of this kind of banking, such as customer service. Jay Sidhu, the founder of one of the many new competitors Goldman is facing, BankMobile, is sceptical of Goldman's prospects, given the importance of customer service in retail banking and Goldman's lack of experience in the area. He said it would have to offer something more than good prices to attract and keep customers. "I have a lot of respect for Goldman - but you cannot be great at everything," said Sidhu, who is also the chairman and chief executive of BankMobile's parent company, Customers Bank. Goldman is betting that its investments in technology will help it take advantage of big changes in the financial industry over the last five years, during which banks have moved away from a business model based on relationships and branches and toward one that is more reliant on smartphones and software.

Technology disruption Scherr said that Goldman was looking broadly at businesses where it could use its technology to provide a cheaper banking product. He cited small-business lending as a particularly attractive area for potential expansion, calling it "ripe for technology disruption". The strategy of offering what are essentially discount financial products is a somewhat unexpected one for Goldman, given that it has long been known as the most upscale firm on Wall Street. This is somewhat like Maserati making a push into the motorised bicycle market. But the offerings, if successful, could provide a valuable public perception payoff for Goldman by softening the firm's image as a remote bastion of power and wealth. The first big test will come later this year when Goldman starts offering a lending product targeting people who need relatively small personal loans of around $US15,000 to $US25,000. Overseeing that effort is an executive hired from the credit card company Discover, Harit Talwar, who runs a team of about 50 people working on the so-called Mosaic project on the 26th floor of Goldman's headquarters in Manhattan. Many of the employees are coders working on sophisticated ways to gauge the credit quality of potential borrowers. Last fall, Goldman introduced its first low-cost exchange-traded funds, which are managed according to computer algorithms and can be purchased through any brokerage account. Then, a few months back, Goldman purchased a small startup, Honest Dollar, that offers inexpensive accounts for retirement savings, aimed at freelancers and other part-time workers in the so-called gig economy.

These products are not all being run out of the bank. But Scherr said that the new offerings were being built with a common technological infrastructure that will make it easier for them to interact and potentially integrate. Scherr is working closely with the head of technology at Goldman, Marty Chavez, who has been trying to open up the bank to new customers and business strategies. Sidhu, of BankMobile, said he was not expecting big things but was watching with curiosity. "If Goldman wants to be a retail bank for every six-pack Joe, I wish them a lot of luck, because they will need it." The New York Times

**Section 1: Introduction to Financial Markets**

**Topic 1: What are Financial Markets?**

Financial markets are places where people buy and sell financial assets such as stocks, bonds, and commodities. These markets play a crucial role in the economy by allowing businesses to raise money, investors to earn returns, and consumers to access credit.

**Topic 2: Supply and Demand**

In financial markets, the price of an asset is determined by the relationship between supply and demand. When demand for an asset is high, its price increases. Conversely, when supply exceeds demand, the price decreases.

**Topic 3: Interest Rates**

Interest rates are the price that borrowers pay for loans and the return that lenders receive on their deposits. They are influenced by factors such as inflation, economic growth, and monetary policy.

**Topic 4: Risk Management**

Risk management is the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks in financial markets. It involves analyzing potential risks and developing strategies to minimize their impact on investments.

**Section 2: Practical Examples**

**Topic 5: Borrowing and Lending**

Financial markets allow individuals and businesses to borrow and lend money. For example, a person may take out a loan to buy a car, while an investor may lend money to a company by buying its bonds.

**Topic 6: Investing**

Investing involves putting money into financial assets such as stocks, bonds, and real estate in the hope of earning a return. Financial markets provide opportunities for individuals to grow their wealth over time.

**Section 3: Real-World Scenarios**

**Topic 7: The Impact of Financial Markets on the Economy**

Financial markets play a critical role in the economy by facilitating trade, investment, and economic growth. For example, when businesses can access credit, they can expand and create jobs. Similarly, when investors have confidence in the market, they are more likely to invest, which drives economic growth.

**Conclusion:**

Financial markets are essential components of a healthy economy. They provide opportunities for individuals and businesses to grow their wealth, access credit, and invest in the future. By understanding the basic concepts of supply and demand, interest rates, and risk management, we can better appreciate the role of financial markets in our lives.

Lesson: Building an Attractive and Stronger Retaining Wall
Introduction:
Retaining walls are structures that hold back soil, rocks, or water and prevent erosion. They are essential in landscaping, agriculture, and construction. In this lesson, we will learn how to build an attractive and stronger retaining wall using several tips.
Core Value:
The core value of this lesson is that building an attractive and stronger retaining wall requires a solid base, compacted base material, good drainage, and proper design.
Section 1: Designing an Attractive and Stronger Retaining Wall
Topic 1: Importance of Design
- A well-designed retaining wall enhances the beauty of your yard and prevents soil erosion.
- A retaining wall should be built to withstand the weight of the soil it holds back.
- The design of a retaining wall depends on the type of soil, the height of the wall, and the angle of the slope.
Topic 2: Types of Retaining Walls
- There are three types of retaining walls: gravity walls, cantilever walls, and anchored walls.
- Gravity walls rely on their weight to hold back soil, while cantilever walls use their width to support the soil. Anchored walls use concrete pins or other supports to hold back the soil.
- The type of retaining wall you choose depends on the site conditions and the height of the wall.
Topic 3: Proper Drainage
- Proper drainage is essential for building a strong retaining wall.
- The base of the retaining wall should be lower than the surrounding ground to allow water to drain away.
- The wall should be designed to handle the amount of water that will accumulate behind it.
Section 2: Building an Attractive and Stronger Retaining Wall
Topic 1: Preparing the Site
- Clear the site of any debris or vegetation that may interfere with the construction of the wall.
- Dig a trench for the footing of the wall.
- Compact the soil in the trench to ensure a solid base for the wall.
Topic 2: Building the Footing
- The footing of the wall should be wider than the wall itself to provide stability.
- Place a layer of gravel in the trench to provide drainage.
- Pour concrete into the trench and level it out to create a solid base for the wall.
Topic 3: Building the Wall
- Place the first course of blocks or stones on top of the footing.
- Step back the courses of blocks or stones to create a battered effect, which adds stability to the wall.
- Use mortar to secure the blocks or stones to each other.
- Continue building the wall up to the desired height.
Topic 4: Finishing the Wall
- Use mortar to fill any gaps between the blocks or stones.
- Apply a sealant to the top of the wall to prevent water from penetrating.
- Plant grass or flowers on the slope behind the wall to add color and texture.
Section 3: Maintaining an Attractive and Stronger Retaining Wall
Topic 1: Regular Maintenance
- Check the wall regularly for cracks or damage.
- Repair any cracks or damage immediately to prevent further damage.
- Clean the wall regularly to remove any dirt or debris that may cause damage.
Topic 2: Proper Drainage
- Ensure that the ground slopes away from the wall to allow water to drain away.
- Install a drainage system behind the wall to prevent water from accumulating.
- Check the drainage system regularly to ensure it is functioning properly.
Conclusion:
Building an attractive and stronger retaining wall requires careful planning and attention to detail. By following these tips, you can create a wall that is both functional and beautiful. With proper maintenance, your retaining wall will last for many years to come.

Lesson: Introduction to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

### Section 1: What is PCOS?
PCOS is a common hormonal condition that affects women of reproductive age. It is caused by an imbalance in the hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle and the development of eggs in the ovaries. This imbalance leads to the formation of small cysts in the ovaries and can cause a range of symptoms, including irregular periods, excess hair growth, acne, and infertility.

### Section 2: How common is PCOS?
PCOS is one of the most common hormonal disorders, affecting between 5% and 10% of women of reproductive age. It is more common in women who are overweight or obese, and it tends to run in families.

### Section 3: What are the symptoms of PCOS?
The symptoms of PCOS can vary widely from woman to woman, but they usually include some combination of the following:

- Irregular periods (missing periods, having periods that come more often than every 21 days or more often than every 35 days)
- Excess hair growth (hirsutism)
- Acne
- Infertility or difficulty getting pregnant
- Pelvic pain or discomfort
- Headaches or migraines
- Skin tags or darkening of the skin (acanthosis nigricans)
- High blood pressure or high cholesterol levels

### Section 4: What causes PCOS?
The exact cause of PCOS is not known, but it is thought to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Some researchers believe that insulin resistance, which is more common in women who are overweight or obese, may play a role in the development of PCOS. Other factors that may contribute to the development of PCOS include inflammation, hormonal imbalances, and the way in which the body processes certain hormones.

### Section 5: How is PCOS diagnosed?
There is no single test for PCOS, but doctors use a combination of tests and symptoms to make a diagnosis. These tests may include:

- Blood tests to measure hormone levels, such as androgens (male hormones), luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
- Ultrasound to check for cysts in the ovaries
- A physical examination to look for signs of excess hair growth or acne
- A discussion of your medical history and family history of PCOS or other hormonal disorders

### Section 6: How is PCOS treated?
There is no cure for PCOS, but there are treatments that can help manage the symptoms and improve the chances of getting pregnant. These treatments may include:

- Lifestyle changes, such as losing weight, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly
- Medications to regulate periods, improve insulin sensitivity, or help with fertility
- Treatments for specific symptoms, such as acne or excess hair growth

### Glossary:
- Androgens: These are male hormones that are present in both men and women. In women, they are usually present in small amounts.
- Hirsutism: Excess hair growth in women, usually in areas such as the face, chest, and abdomen.
- Acanthosis nigricans: Darkening of the skin, usually in areas such as the neck, armpits, and groin.
- Insulin resistance: A condition in which the body does not respond well to the hormone insulin, which helps regulate blood sugar levels.
- Luteinizing hormone (LH): A hormone that stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs.
- Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH): A hormone that helps regulate the menstrual cycle and the development of eggs in the ovaries.

### Conclusion:
In this lesson, we have learned about PCOS, its symptoms, and how it is diagnosed and treated. We have also discussed the role of hormones in the development of PCOS and the importance of lifestyle changes in managing the condition. By understanding the basics of PCOS, we can better understand the impact it has on our bodies and take steps to manage its symptoms and improve our overall health.

text: Jason Belmonte has made plenty of history on the lanes over the years but his reason for speaking with BJI Editor Gianmarc Manzione for this podcast is that he intends to make history off the lanes as well with a video game he has developed called "Bowling by Jason Belmonte" or BJB. It’s available on iOS and Android platforms and Belmo is hoping to partner with the entire bowling industry to make this “the single greatest sporting game ever made.” For Belmo, this is not just about playing a video game; it is about using a video game to drive new people into the sport of bowling and into their local bowling centers. That is the motivation behind the meticulously detailed manner in which Belmonte and his collaborators have sought to replicate real-world bowling down to every last subtlety of the physics, format and fun of our sport.

A medical procedure is a specific medical intervention performed to diagnose or treat a disease or injury. In this lesson, we will learn about myelogram, a medical procedure used to diagnose spinal cord abnormalities.

**Section 2: Understanding Myelogram**

Myelogram is a medical procedure that uses an X-ray to examine the spinal cord and surrounding areas. During the procedure, a doctor will inject a dye into the spinal column, which will then be visible on the X-ray. This allows the doctor to identify any abnormalities or damage to the spinal cord.

**Section 3: Preparing for Myelogram**

Before undergoing a myelogram, patients will need to prepare by following their doctor's instructions. Patients may be asked to fast for a certain period before the procedure, as well as stop taking certain medications. Additionally, patients should inform their doctor of any allergies or medical conditions they have.

**Section 4: Undergoing Myelogram**

During the procedure, patients will lie on an X-ray table, and the doctor will inject the dye into the spinal column. The patient may be asked to change positions to allow the dye to spread evenly throughout the spinal column. Once the dye has been injected, the doctor will take X-ray images of the spine.

**Section 5: Recovering from Myelogram**

After the procedure, patients may experience some discomfort or pain at the injection site. Patients should follow their doctor's instructions for recovery, which may include resting for a certain period and avoiding strenuous activities.

Section 2: Effects of Gun Violence

Topic 1: Human Cost
- Gun violence affects not only the victims but also their families, friends, and communities.
- It can lead to physical injuries, emotional trauma, and even death.

Topic 2: Economic Cost
- Gun violence can result in medical expenses, lost productivity, and legal costs.
- These costs are borne by individuals, families, and society as a whole.

Topic 3: Social Cost
- Gun violence can erode trust and cohesion within communities.
- It can create fear and anxiety among residents, especially in areas where gun violence is prevalent.

Section 3: Measures to Prevent Gun-Related Incidents

Topic 1: Background Checks
- Background checks can help prevent guns from falling into the wrong hands.
- They can identify individuals who are prohibited from owning guns due to criminal records or mental illness.

Topic 2: Waiting Periods
