Swedish fans raise funds for SOS

Our official supporters club in Sweden has showed support for World Orphan Week by collecting money for SOS Children in Haiti.

Our official supporters club in Sweden has showed support for World Orphan Week by collecting money for SOS Children in Haiti.

Tottenham Hotspur Swedish Supporters collected £1 from each of its 800 members and sent the cheque to SOS Children to aid recovery in the country hit so hard by the recent earthquake.

Mathias Bridfelt of THSS said: "All over the world people have been moved by the monumental catastrophy in Haiti. Tottenham Hotspur's Swedish Supporters' Club has send £1 for each of our 800 members and challenges all other supporters' clubs to do the same.

"Our hope is that the money will help the children of Haiti so that they in the near future again will be able to feel joy in their lives."

The collection from THSS coincides with SOS Children's World Orphan Week.

SOS Children, the world's largest orphan charity and the Club's official global charity partner, is asking people of all ages to 'Do Something Amazing' during World Orphan Week and help give orphaned and abandoned children a family for life.

Our goal during World Orphan Week is to help SOS Children secure 1,000 more sponsors and - just like our Swedish fans - we would like you to join us!

SOS CHILDREN AND SPURS

SOS Children has been the Club's global charity partner since 2007 and the Club has helped fund and construct the charity's orphan village in Rustenburg including the development of the Tottenham Hotspur House.

The 'Spurs House', which is uniquely funded by monies received from player's fines, now provides orphaned children in Rustenburg with a family they can call their own.

SOS Children is asking people of all ages to do something amazing during World Orphan Week and help give orphaned and abandoned children a family for life.

Tottenham Hotspur's entire First Team and management have backed the campaign and each has signed up to sponsor an orphan in one of three countries - Haiti, South Africa and China.

Haiti, South Africa and China are three areas with specific relevance to Spurs. The Club has had a long-term relationship with SOS Children in South Africa having built an orphan house in Rustenburg. During the Club's pre-season tour to China, ahead of the 2009/10 season, members of the first team visited orphans at a newly opened village in Beijing. And with so many of SOS Children's resources being channelled to Haiti there's an increasing and pressing need to support the charity's efforts in the country.

There are 145 million orphaned children in the world. 100 million more have been abandoned to live on the streets. SOS Children is the world's largest orphan charity and provides a family for life for children who have lost their parents through war, famine, disease, natural disaster and poverty.

Over 78,000 orphaned and abandoned children are cared for by SOS mothers in clusters of family homes in more than 500 Children's Villages in 124 countries worldwide.

You can help by visiting www.soschildrensvillages.org.uk - CLICK HERE - to support World Orphan Week, make a donation or even sponsoring a child. No deductions are made from the sponsors' payments for administration and 100% of your donation will go towards helping the child.

Lesson: Introduction to Accounting

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Accounting is the process of recording, summarizing, and interpreting financial transactions to provide information that helps businesses make decisions. It involves identifying, measuring, and communicating economic events and transactions.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
Let's say a company called ABC Limited sold 1000 units of a product for $10 each. The cost of producing each unit was $5. The company paid $500 in rent for their office space.

Using the following accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Assets = $500 (rent) + $5,000 (revenue) - $5,000 (cost of goods sold) - $5,000 (expenses)

Equity = $5,000 (revenue) - $5,000 (cost of goods sold) - $5,000 (expenses)

Liabilities = $500 (rent)

The company made a profit of $1,000 ($5,000 revenue - $4,000 expenses).

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
A company wants to invest in a new machine that costs $10,000. They expect it to last for 5 years and save them $2,000 per year in labor costs. How long will it take for the machine to pay for itself?

Using the following accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Assets = $10,000 (machine) - $10,000 (depreciation)

Equity = $20,000 (savings in labor costs)

Liabilities = $0

The machine will pay for itself in 2 years ($20,000 / $10,000 per year).

## Glossary
- Assets: Resources owned by a company that have value and can be converted into cash.
- Liabilities: Debts or obligations owed by a company.
- Equity: The difference between assets and liabilities.
- Depreciation: The decrease in value of an asset over time.

## Conclusion
Accounting is an essential tool for businesses to understand their financial health and make informed decisions. By understanding the basics of accounting, you can apply these skills to analyze financial statements and make predictions about future performance.

Lesson Title: Introduction to Economics

## Chapter 1: What is Economics?

**Introduction:** In this lesson, we will learn about economics, which is the study of how people use resources to satisfy their needs and wants. We will explore what economics is, its importance, and some of its key concepts.

**Main Topic:** What is Economics?

Economics is the study of how people use resources to satisfy their needs and wants. It is concerned with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. Economists study how individuals, businesses, governments, and other organizations make choices about using limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants.

**Subtopic:** Importance of Economics

Understanding economics is important because it helps us make informed decisions about how to use our resources wisely. It helps us understand how prices are determined, why some countries are richer than others, and how taxes and government policies affect our lives. Economics also helps us understand the consequences of our actions and how they impact others.

**Subtopic:** Key Concepts in Economics

There are several key concepts in economics that we will explore throughout this course. These include:

1. Scarcity: Economics deals with scarcity, which means that there are not enough resources to satisfy all of our wants and needs. This requires us to make choices about how to use our resources effectively.

2. Trade-offs: Because resources are scarce, we must make trade-offs between different options. For example, we may have to choose between spending money on food or clothing.

3. Opportunity cost: Every choice we make has an opportunity cost, which is the value of the next best alternative that we give up when we make a decision.

4. Supply and demand: The relationship between the quantity of a good or service that producers are willing to provide and the quantity that consumers want to buy at different prices.

5. Production possibilities frontier: A graphical representation of the maximum amount of goods and services that can be produced with a given amount of resources.

**Conclusion:** In this lesson, we have learned about what economics is and its importance. We have also explored some of the key concepts that we will be studying throughout this course. By understanding these concepts, we can make better decisions about how to use our resources wisely and effectively.

**Glossary:**
- Scarcity: A situation where there are not enough resources to satisfy all of our wants and needs.
- Trade-offs: The process of choosing between different options, giving up one thing to gain another.
- Opportunity cost: The value of the next best alternative that we give up when we make a decision.
- Supply and demand: The relationship between the quantity of a good or service that producers are willing to provide and the quantity that consumers want to buy at different prices.
- Production possibilities frontier: A graphical representation of the maximum amount of goods and services that can be produced with a given amount of resources.

Lesson Title: Introduction to Probability and Statistics

Introduction:

In this lesson, we will learn about probability and statistics, which are essential tools for understanding and making decisions in our daily lives. We will start by defining probability and statistics, and then move on to explore their applications in various fields such as gambling, insurance, and finance.

Core Value:

The core value of this lesson is to teach students how to use probability and statistics to make informed decisions based on data. By understanding the principles of probability and statistics, students will be able to analyze and interpret data, identify patterns, and draw conclusions that can help them make better choices in various aspects of their lives.

Section 1: Definition and Examples of Probability and Statistics

Probability:

Probability is the measure of how likely an event is to occur. It is expressed as a number between 0 and 1, where 0 means that the event cannot happen, 1 means that the event is certain to occur, and any value between 0 and 1 represents the probability of the event occurring.

Example:

Suppose you have a deck of cards with 52 cards. What is the probability of drawing a red card?

Solution:

There are 26 red cards and 52 total cards in the deck. So, the probability of drawing a red card is 26/52, which simplifies to 1/2 or 50%.

Statistics:

Statistics is the study of how to collect, organize, analyze, interpret, and present data. It involves using mathematical techniques to describe and summarize data, and to draw conclusions about populations based on samples.

Example:

Suppose you want to determine the average height of students in your class. You take a random sample of 20 students and measure their heights. What is the best way to represent this data?

Solution:

You can represent the data using a histogram, which is a graphical representation of the distribution of heights in your sample. You can also calculate the mean, median, and mode of the data to describe its central tendency and spread.

Section 2: Applications of Probability and Statistics

Gambling:

Probability and statistics are used extensively in gambling to determine the odds of winning a game or bet. For example, in a game of roulette, the probability of winning depends on the number of slots on the wheel and the number of balls used in the game.

Insurance:

Insurance companies use probability and statistics to assess the risks associated with insuring individuals or properties. They calculate premiums based on the probability of an event occurring, such as an accident or theft.

Finance:

Probability and statistics are used in finance to model and predict market behavior, evaluate investment opportunities, and manage risk. For example, investors use statistical models to analyze historical stock prices and predict future trends.

Section 3: Practical Examples and Self-Debating Discussions

Example 1:

A bag contains 5 red balls and 3 green balls. If two balls are drawn at random without replacement, what is the probability that both balls are red?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we can use the formula for conditional probability: P(A and B) = P(A|B) * P(B), where A is the event of drawing a red ball, B is the event of not replacing the ball, and P(A|B) is the probability of drawing a red ball given that the previous ball was not replaced.

Example 2:

A study is conducted to determine the relationship between exercise and mental health. A random sample of 100 people is taken, and their mental health scores are recorded. What is the best way to summarize the data?

Solution:

We can summarize the data using descriptive statistics such as the mean, median, and mode of the mental health scores. We can also create a frequency distribution to show the number of people with each score.

Self-Debating Discussion:

Is it fair to say that the probability of an event occurring is the same as the likelihood of the event happening? Why or why not?

Conclusion:

In this lesson, we have learned about probability and statistics, their applications in various fields, and how to use them to make informed decisions based on data. By understanding these concepts, we can become more knowledgeable and effective decision-makers in our personal and professional lives.

Lesson: Introduction to Data Visualization with R

## Section 1: Introduction
In this lesson, we will learn about data visualization using the R programming language. Data visualization is the process of creating graphical representations of data to help us understand and interpret information more effectively. R is a powerful tool for data visualization because it allows us to create custom graphics that can be tailored to our specific needs.

## Section 2: Installing R and RStudio
Before we begin, we need to install R and RStudio. R is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. RStudio is an integrated development environment for R that makes it easier to write, debug, and publish code. You can download both programs from their respective websites.

## Section 3: Loading Libraries
Once you have installed R and RStudio, you will need to load the necessary libraries for data visualization. The most commonly used library for creating graphics in R is called ggplot2. To load ggplot2, type the following command into the R console:

```{r}
library(ggplot2)
```

## Section 4: Creating a Bar Chart
Now that we have loaded the ggplot2 library, let's create a simple bar chart. A bar chart is a type of chart that displays categorical data with rectangular bars. The length of each bar represents the frequency or percentage of the category it represents.

```{r}
# Create a vector of data
data <- c("Group1", "Group2", "Group3", "Group4")

# Create a vector of values
values <- c(10, 20, 30, 40)

# Create a bar chart
bar_chart <- ggplot(data = data.frame(data, values), aes(x = data, y = values)) +
  geom_bar(stat = "identity", fill = "steelblue") +
  labs(title = "Bar Chart Example")

# Print the chart
print(bar_chart)
```

This code will create a bar chart with four bars, each representing one of the groups in our data. The x-axis displays the group names, and the y-axis displays the corresponding values.

## Section 5: Customizing Plots
One of the great features of ggplot2 is its ability to customize plots. We can change the colors, fonts, and layout of our charts to make them more visually appealing and informative.

```{r}
# Change the background color of the plot
bar_chart + theme_minimal() +
  theme(plot.background = element_rect(fill = "white", linetype = "solid")) +
  labs(title = "Customized Bar Chart Example")

The objective of the study was to evaluate usefulness of 10 of these QTL in controlling disease expression. Six populations were developed providing a total of 321 F2-derived lines for the study. Recombinant inbred lines (RIL) used as parents were obtained from populations of 'Essex' × 'Forrest' (EF), 'Flyer' × 'Hartwig' (FH), and 'Pyramid' × 'Douglas' (PD). Disease resistance was evaluated in the greenhouse at three different planting times, each with four replications, using sorghum infested with F. virguliforme homogeneously mixed in the soil (Luckew et al., Crop Sci 52:2215-2223, 2012). Four disease assessment criteria-foliar disease incidence (DI), foliar leaf scorch disease severity (DS), area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC), and root rot severity-were used. QTL were identified in more than one of the disease assessment criteria, mainly associated with lines in the most resistant categories. Five QTL (qRfs4, qRfs5, qRfs7, qRfs12, and Rfs16) were associated with at least one of the disease assessments across multiple populations. Of the five, qRfs4 was associated with DI, AUDPC, and root rot severity, and Rfs16 with AUDPC and root rot severity. The findings suggest it may be possible for plant breeders to focus on stacking a subset of the previously identified QTL to improve resistance to SDS in soybean.

Lesson: Introduction to Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) and their Use in Plant Breeding

Overview:
In this self-taught lesson, we will learn about Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) and their importance in plant breeding. We will cover the following topics:

1. What are QTL?
2. Why are QTL important in plant breeding?
3. How are QTL identified?
4. Example of QTL in soybean resistance to sudden death syndrome

What are QTL?
Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) are specific locations on a chromosome where genes are located that influence a particular trait. These traits can be any quantitative characteristic, such as height, weight, or disease resistance. QTL play a crucial role in plant breeding because they help identify the genes responsible for desirable traits in plants.

Why are QTL important in plant breeding?
QTL are essential in plant breeding because they allow scientists to understand the genetic basis of specific traits. This knowledge can then be used to develop new plant varieties with improved characteristics, such as higher yields, better resistance to diseases, or increased tolerance to environmental stress.

How are QTL identified?
QTL are identified through a process called genetic mapping. This involves comparing the DNA sequences of different plants and identifying regions where the sequences are similar or different. By studying these differences, scientists can pinpoint the location of QTL on a plant's chromosomes.

Example of QTL in soybean resistance to sudden death syndrome
Researchers have identified several QTL associated with resistance to sudden death syndrome in soybeans. This disease is caused by the soilborne fungus Fusarium virguliforme and can cause significant yield losses. By identifying these QTL, scientists can develop new plant varieties with improved resistance to the disease.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we have learned about Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) and their importance in plant breeding. We have covered what QTL are, why they are important, and how they are identified. We have also discussed an example of QTL in soybean resistance to sudden death syndrome. By understanding the role of QTL in plant breeding, we can develop new plant varieties with improved characteristics that can help feed the growing global population.
