I chose this assignment for two reasons, one because I have four beautiful children who attend public schooling and the other reason is because I have seen some of the damaging incidents that these children are enduring behind the brands being sought out that are quote to be cool. I experienced some of the same issues growing up as a child as many others reading this have. Coming up in the urban parts of Port Arthur, Texas a small town with a population of 53,818 I have seen people robbed for their shoes killed for shirts or jewelry all through middle school and high school. But the goal of my story is simply to inform and educate on the following those that are for it, those that are against and those that are stuck in the middle. I am personally for it but not basis about the matter I do want kids to have there freedoms of speech while living life through artistic framing, however I do not want children killing themselves over clothing/brand names with no one to blame. It starts at the home. What are we teaching our kids? Are the TV commercial and infomercials about different products raising our children? Or is it the top sports athlete or entertainer with the hottest song or movie? The answer is complicated, because living in a society where most of the day you are amongst your...

Rural/Missionary Electrification Isolated segments of the Meralco franchise remain still deprived of the benefits and conveniences of legal electricity service. These include (1) informal settlers in certain public lands or private properties; (2) portions of resettlement areas where informal settlers such as families formerly residing along the Pasig River, railroad tracks and privatized government properties; (3) isolated communities; and (4) families unable to meet the minimum legal requirements to apply for and secure legal electricity connections. The thrust of rural/missionary electrification is to develop feasible alternatives to provide these communities with electricity through workable socialized schemes that are suitable to these potential beneficiaries in partnership with Local Government Units (LGUs), Non- Government Organizations (NGOs), and multilateral or bilateral financing institutions. As the leading electric distribution utility company in the country, Meralco also extends support and assistance to other distribution utilities and cooperatives in restoring electricity service to their customers in urban and rural areas particularly in times of emergencies. 2.

FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children's education records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. Students to whom the rights have transferred are "eligible students."

...Homeschool VS Public School Shawn Banks University of Composition and Communication COM/ 155 February 19, 2012 Cari Kenner The issue of homeschooling versus public education has been an ongoing debate for a very long time. The decision between the two forms of education has plagued parents for an equal amount of time as well. For some parents, the choice is easy because the options are limited by funds and availability of the parent’s time. Academic environment can be an issue for some parents. There are also several health and safety concerns that parents must face too. One of the biggest concerns that parents contend with is the overwhelming difference in the social aspect between homeschooling and public education. Granted that both can accommodate a quality education to its students, there are many differences between homeschooling and a public education. For the most part, homeschooling your children are reasonably inexpensive. With the Internet, parents can get the curriculum for the grade level of the child for free. There are plenty of websites that offer this service. This leaves the price tag for the supplies that the child will need. If these are bought by bulk during the July/August back-to-school season, parents can save a ton of money. By doing these things the cost for homeschooling a child would be under fifty dollars per child. Public school, on the other hand, in some cases is quite different. Public schools across the country struggle...

Access to public bodies is important from both a constitutional and policy perspective. First, as public entities, school boards must be careful to adhere to constitutional principles, including free speech. From a policy perspective, as public bodies, school boards need to: be accountable to the public; have clear and transparent decision-making procedures; and be open to input from the public (Underwood, 2017). In this paper, I will discuss my experience at a local school board meeting. I will outline a) The purpose of the meeting, b) The flow of the meeting, c) Evidence of power, d) Public participation,...

Of the roles discussed in your text, what two roles would be the most important to fill and why? (in relation to the article) * Considering the core public health functions a community nurse fills, discuss how a community nurse can partner within the community to address issues related to the article. You must reply to one other post by Saturday July 23 at 2355. Post I: The two roles that would be most important for the nurse to fill in relation to this article would be the educator role and collaborator role. While this article discusses the loss suffered by Mr. Jones this is a scenario that it’s very common. If the nurse had fulfilled the role of an educator Mr. Jones would have known that he should neither smoke while he was hooked up to his oxygen nor while his oxygen was on in the room. In this circumstance Mr. Jones’ memory seemed a bit hazy at home the nurse could have provided a written list of information about oxygen therapy in the home so that Mr. Jones didn’t have to resort to assumption or verbal recall when making his decision. As a collaborator a nurse must work with many people outside of patients and physicians. Oxygen is a commonly prescribed...

...PROS OF CELL PHONE IN MODERN SOCIETY | December 10 2011 | | BILL HASBUNE | PROF. ARTHUR CACACE PROS OF CELL PHONES IN MODERN SOCIETY INTRODUCTION: The concept of the cellular phone has been around since 1947; however the technology to do so did not exist until 1973. According to (wikipedia.com) “In December 1947, Douglas H. Ring and W. Rae Young, Bell Labs engineers, proposed hexagonal cells for mobile phones in vehicles. Philip T. Porter, also of Bell Labs, proposed that the cell towers be at the corners of the hexagons rather than the centers and have directional antennas that would transmit/receive in three directions into three adjacent hexagon cells on three different frequencies. At this stage, the technology to implement these ideas did not exist, nor had the frequencies been allocated. Several years would pass before Richard H. Frenkiel and Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs developed the electronics to achieve this in the 1960s” .It was not until in 1973 On April 3, Martin Cooper, a Motorola researcher and executive, made the first analogue mobile phone call using a heavy prototype model. He called Dr. Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs “There was a long race between Motorola and Bell Labs to produce the first portable mobile phone. Cooper is the first inventor named on "Radio telephone system" filed on October 17, 1973 with the US Patent Office and later issued as US Patent 3,906,166. John F.

Statistics predict that private schools have a more developed curriculum that can also offer challenges promoting growth. However, the public school system is considered more cost efficient, provides a standard curriculum, and promotes an environment that influences socialization. Both education systems are designed to edify to the best of their ability, but each carry their own imperfections. Research has shown that the private school sector is more beneficial than public because students gain academic advantages, college preparation, and safety.
