...The thesis statement that I have come up with for my “big idea” topic is: I believe we can better our economy by changing the way the government assists the citizens financially with programs such as food stamps, otherwise known as EBT. The government shapes society and the government needs to help society help themselves by making a few changes to the way it disburses our tax money. I think this thesis is going to be effective because it shows my main focus of the essay I will be writing, which is to change the way government assists families of low income. I want to stress the option of giving more money as school grants rather than giving it for food. Another option would also be limiting the options of foods that are okay to purchase with EBT. Right now, there are no limitation other than alcohol or pre-prepared foods. You can even purchase energy drinks at the moment. If people weren’t given everything for doing nothing, they may be more likely to further their education and get a better job to provide such luxuries as fatty foods or sweets and energy drinks. I see a major problem supporting this thesis with fallacy, mainly because I have such strong personal opinions. I am going to have to force myself to rely on straight facts and pure research to get my point across. For my research, I am going to stray away from any sort of blogs or websites put up as a riot against the government. I will do my best to find websites that are “.org” or .gov”. I think a good...

...secretary for every two members of the executive team. Jack Snyder assists Ralph Alane and Jessica Hilo, and Ruth Disselkoen supports Samuel and Frank Daley. The main difference between the teams is that Jack’s team has a full time administrative assistant, while Ruth’s team has a part-time assistant. Jessica’s work has been assigned to Ralph and Frank Daley for the duration of her leave, which I believe has put the workload of the teams out of balance. As a result, Ruth has begun to take shorter breaks and use overtime to complete her work. However, this has resulted in her being frequently exhausted on the job as well as receive complaints about the quality of her work. Jack, on the other hand, has been frequently late and takes longer breaks than allowed; he also frequently seems to have little work to do, although what work he has done was more than satisfactory to the team. To alleviate these issues I propose the following changes: First of all, both teams should make an effort to separate Jessica’s workload from their own. Secondly, Ralph should complete his normal tasks in the morning and assist with Jessica’s work once he is finished. Thirdly, Frank should complete Jessica’s work first and his tasks in the afternoon. This way Jack can complete Ralph’s assignments in the morning and receive additional work from Frank in the afternoon. Ralph’s full time assistant shall assist him in the afternoon. Ruth should assist Samuel in the morning and address Frank’s normal tasks in the...

...Paul C Federal Bureau of Prisons-Reentry One very important function of the corrections system is to assist inmates that are up for release from federal prison.

ASSIST, which stands for Approaches to Study Skills Inventory for Student, provide provides a useful instrument for providing accessible learning related information which students can reflect on. Besides, providing a clearly laid out profile of the learning approaches of each student identified via the administration of a self-report questionnaire. With suitable additional information, discussion and reflection, the profile offers the potential of being of great help in raising the awareness of us to our learning styles. The main section of ASSIST consists of a self-report questionnaire which asks us about our studying habits. I was very interest in this because we could find out our learning styles through simple and quick question which make the answers was more clear, exact and precise.

...Assisting expatriates to work" - Please see "Dual career couples" **Topics you may want to cover: - What family problems do expatriates face? How do they influence the willingness and quality for them to work? - What policies the companies have to tackle these problems? How successful are these solutions? How often they were used? Dual-career couple: the expat’s spouse has to leave a good job in the home country • additional leave for the expat assignee The burden of the move in and settling in tasks tends to fall to the accompanying partner as the assignee is typically “in at the deep-end” with the assignment. A few additional days leave that can be taken to assist with some of the key move in tasks can be invaluable to the family, particularly when younger children are around. Directing legions of movers to get things in the right place while simultaneously ensuring that your children out of harms way is much easier if there are two of you. If additional leave is not an option, at least try to ensure that the assignee has a “honeymoon period” with little or no travel expected. • Access to a discrete individual who can help with local language In the early days of the assignment, the family will have to deal with communications in the local language and in many cases their language skills will be inadequate to deal with them. Assignees often ask their assistants to help them but this is not always possible nor is it always appropriate. • Organise a “mentor”...

...Devices that Assist People with Disabilities Sheewane Davis Mercer University In the 2008 Census, over 10 million Americans reported a daily activity limitation and their activities of daily living (ADLs) usually required assistance from tools or caregivers. Moreover, about 0.3 million Americans have experienced a serious spinal cord injury (SCI), for whom essential tasks, such as dressing, preparing food, or taking medications, usually require the assistance from personal caregivers. However, the shortage and high cost of experienced caregivers fail rapidly growing needs for personal assistance. Technology which aids in these tasks is in great demand and it must allow the user to independently and safely control both mobility and manipulation in their home or the community. Robotics technology has been widely applied in rehabilitation technology and assistive devices to enhance the performance of assistance and quality of life of people with disabilities. By attaching a robotic manipulator to a mobile base, such as a wheelchair or a mobile robot, several robotic assistive devices have been developed to provide both mobility and manipulation assistance to people with severe physical impairments. However, most existing devices only provide a single-arm manipulation, which greatly reduce their efficiency of assistance and restricts their ability to perform complex manipulation tasks which require the involvements of both arms, for example, open the refrigerator with one arm...

LVAD are lifesaving modules for patients who need a heart transplant that are waiting for a heart but their heart is not healthy enough to work on its own. LVAD is a key potential area of focus for researchers and various manufacturers at present. “Unlike a total artificial heart, the LVAD doesn't replace the heart; it just helps it do its job” according to MedicineNet.com. One of the heart pumps is called HeartMate II Left Ventricular Assist Device. It helps move blood through the body. A small motor inside the pump turns the motor that moves the blood. This pump is placed right below the heart and is implanted under your skin. One end of the LVAD connects to the left ventricle the heart’s main pumping chamber.

...Berlin Heart and ECMO. Even though both seem to provide the same result, medically they are extremely different and can provide a wide range of different results. Parents who are force to make these decisions, tend to question the effects that the two would have on their child. Whether it is the physical, emotional or the overall health effects, the decision is still a hard one to make. With the clock ticking and a life in the hands of medicine, the decision has to be reached immediately. The Berlin Heart is an external device that helps the right ventricle of the heart pump blood to the body. With surgery, Doctors implant tubes to both the left and right ventricle of the heart. These tubes are connected to the Berlin Heart and Pump to assist with the flow of blood and oxygen to both the lungs and heart. See below diagram [pic]Figure 1. 1. The deoxygenated blood flows from the body into the right atrium. ( Red Line) 2. Since the right ventricle can not pump blood into the lungs, the blood goes into the Berlin Heart (yellow circle). 3.
