The document argues that high school students in America should be allowed access to birth control from doctors or Planned Parenthood without parental consent in order to decrease teenage pregnancy and abortion rates. It provides statistics showing that 88% of teens break virginity pledges, abstinence-only programs don't work, 80% of pregnancies among teens are unplanned, and 59% of teens would not go to Planned Parenthood if parental consent was required. Allowing confidential access to birth control could decrease unplanned pregnancies among teens by 400,000 per year.

This document discusses some of the causes of teen pregnancy such as lack of knowledge about safe sex, lack of parental guidance, family problems, falling in love and cutting classes at a young age. It notes that teen pregnancy is an important issue as teens have to take on motherhood responsibilities early. Some teens resort to abortion instead of telling their parents when they get pregnant due to fear. The document suggests that the government add more programs for teens and cites statistics about pre-marital sex and live-in arrangements among Filipino youth.

Many Americans struggle to adhere to complex medication schedules, resulting in over $290 billion annually in unnecessary costs. Our approach develops an automated home medication dispenser that can remotely manage and dispense up to 15 medications for 90 days each, notifying caregivers of missed doses. This aims to simplify medication adherence and management, reducing healthcare costs and improving patient outcomes.

Health-E You/Salud iTu is an mHealth contraceptive decision support tool for adolescent girls. Through an interactive, youth-centered approach, the App provides accurate information (that can be updated in real-time), individually tailored feedback/messages, and a user-driven experience. Based on the youth’s preferences, and experiences, the App provides contraceptive recommendation(s) while also presenting the youth with all of the possible options including videos of providers and youth. Youth can then share information from the App with their provider to help them communicate their needs, interests and questions. In turn, the provider is better prepared for the face-to-face encounter. Pilot testing shows it is feasible to implement, acceptable to adolescents and providers; improves health knowledge; and visit quality. It is being evaluated at 14 school-based health centers using a longitudinal, cluster randomized control trial research design.

Dealing with infertility in working women
This document discusses infertility issues faced by working women. It notes that about 7.3 million people are affected by infertility, with delayed childbearing being a major contributing factor. Treatment procedures for infertility are difficult both physically and financially, requiring women to undergo expensive and stressful medical procedures that often require taking time off work. A key reason for rising infertility among women is increased age of first pregnancy to around 35 years old on average, as women prioritize their careers and further education and delay starting families as a result.

Fertility and determinants
Fertility is determined by several demographic and socioeconomic factors including age at marriage, duration of married life, child spacing, education level, economic status, caste, religion, nutrition, family planning programs, and other factors like a woman's status in society. Early marriage before 18, longer duration of married life between 15-25 years, fewer years between births, lower education levels, lower economic status, and belonging to some castes or religions are associated with higher fertility, while higher education, economic development, better nutrition, family planning, and women's empowerment lower fertility.

Megan Sandel presents evidence that stable, decent, affordable housing acts like a vaccine by providing multiple long-lasting benefits. Housing stability, quality, and affordability influence health outcomes. The Moving to Opportunity study showed that relocating families from high-poverty to low-poverty areas reduced obesity, diabetes, mental health issues, demonstrating housing's differential benefits. Investing in affordable housing can yield cost savings through improved health outcomes and social benefits, similarly to how vaccines provide returns through individual and public health protection.Teen Pregnancy- Catherine Quintanilla
This document discusses ways to prevent teenage pregnancy through comprehensive sex education, learning about contraceptives, and youth development programs. It notes that nearly 615,000 US women aged 15-19 become pregnant each year, and that teenage mothers often do not complete high school or can struggle with depression and anxiety. The children of teenage mothers also face greater risks. Comprehensive sex education, knowledge of various contraceptive options, and community programs that educate youth about sexuality and provide support can help lower teenage pregnancy rates.
Temporal trends in reproductive performance in Irish dairy herds and associat...
Irish dairy herd fertility has been declining since the 1980s due to changes in farming systems. Conception rates have fallen below 50% with an increasing calving-to-service interval of about one day per week. Factors contributing to this trend include reduced estrus expression, poor oocyte/embryo quality, low sire fertility, and postpartum endocrinopathies. Without corrective actions like improved nutrition, estrus detection systems, and selecting for more fertile cattle, the response to traditional veterinary therapy may diminish over time.

William Bradford was a Puritan who fled religious persecution in England and traveled to America on the Mayflower in 1620. The voyage was difficult, with many Puritans dying along the way. When they arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts, about half of the original Puritans died that first winter due to sickness and lack of shelter. Bradford became the governor and recorded their experiences, including the hardships of establishing one of the first American colonies. They survived through cooperation and by making peace with the local Wampanoag tribe under the sachem Massasoit.

American transcendentalism good copy
Here are some questions to reflect on the Socratic seminar:
1. One new idea I hadn't thought of before that I liked was when someone brought up how Thoreau's experiment living alone connected to the transcendentalist ideal of self-reliance.
2. One question I still have is how Thoreau's ideas influenced later environmentalists and conservationists.
3. I think the class participated well overall. Most people contributed multiple comments and referenced specifics from the text, showing they had thought deeply about the material. The discussion flowed nicely with people building on each other's points.
4. I participated okay but could have done better. I only contributed a couple comments but didn't reference the

1) The sermon warns that sinners are suspended over the fires of Hell only by God's restraint, and if God were to withdraw his hand, sinners would immediately plunge into eternal damnation.
2) God's wrath hangs over sinners like heavy black clouds ready to burst with fury, and only God's will holds back the floods of vengeance that are pressing to be released.
3) Sinners are held over the pit of Hell by God, who abhors them, and any not born again through God's spirit remain in danger of this wrath, regardless of outward morality or religion.

The task is to interpret a quote, agree or disagree with it, and discuss two literary works that support the position. Good essays explicitly agree or disagree with the lens, have a strong opening, and use evidence from works to anchor the thesis. Body paragraphs should include a claim, evidence from works, and interpretation of how the evidence relates to the claim.
Arg essay texts
After putting a box of old poetry manuscripts in the trash, a professor was reported to police by a student as a "Middle Eastern man" acting suspiciously. This led to an evacuation of campus buildings and cancellation of classes as the bomb squad investigated. It was revealed to be just recycling. However, the incident showed how an innocent action by a person of color can be viewed as a threat due to a culture of fear and profiling. While the university denied the report was racially motivated, the professor was deeply troubled by the profiling and atmosphere of suspicion it revealed.

Prevention
Teenage pregnancy is a significant problem in the United States. Statistics show that less than 2/3 of sexually active teenagers use protection, and unintended teen pregnancies result in health, economic, and social costs. Efforts to address the problem through sex education and prevention programs have had some success. The Teen Pregnancy Prevention Initiative aims to reduce pregnancy rates through evidence-based programs. While progress has been made as the overall teen birth rate has declined 52% since 1991, more work remains to educate teens and reduce risks of unintended pregnancy.
Wentland health presentation
This document discusses teenage pregnancy in the United States. It notes that most teens would be upset if they became pregnant but many have unprotected sex. Each year over 600,000 US women aged 15-19 become pregnant. Teen pregnancy rates have declined in recent decades but are still higher than in many other developed countries. Abstinence-only sex education is less effective than comprehensive sex education in preventing teen pregnancy. When contraceptive use and abstinence are both discussed, it is more effective at reducing risks.
CHILD MARRIAGE IN NIGERIA
Each year, 15 million girls are married before the age of 18. That is 28 girls every minute – married off too soon, endangering their personal development and wellbeing. With more young people on our planet than ever before, child marriage is a human rights violation that we must end to achieve a fairer future for all.
Child brides are often disempowered, dependent on their husbands and deprived of their fundamental rights to health, education and safety. Neither physically nor emotionally ready to become wives and mothers, child brides are at greater risk of experiencing dangerous complications in pregnancy and childbirth, becoming infected with HIV/AIDS and suffering domestic violence. With little access to education and economic opportunities, they and their families are more likely to live in poverty.
In Nigeria, 43% of girls are married off before their 18th birthday. 17% are married before they turn 15. The prevalence of child marriage varies widely from one region to another, with figures as high as 76% in the North West region and as low as 10% in the South East
Teen pregnancy ppt
Teen pregnancy can lead teens to drop out of school, with 30% of teen mothers citing pregnancy as a reason for dropping out. Only 40% of teen mothers finish high school and less than 2% finish college. In 2012, over 305,000 teenage girls gave birth in the US. Adoption is an option for pregnant teens, which can be open or closed. Open adoptions allow birth parents to visit the child, while closed adoptions keep the birth parent's identity confidential. 80% of young teen moms end up in poverty requiring welfare. The rate of teen pregnancy has decreased overall from 2011 to 2012, though it decreased more for some racial groups than others.

Teenage pregnancy and premarital sex can pose health risks for both mother and baby. Babies born to teenage mothers have an increased risk of low birth weight, premature birth, and developmental issues. Teen mothers also have higher risks of social and economic problems like lower educational attainment and income levels. While rates of teen pregnancy have declined in Canada and the US due to better access to contraception and sex education, it remains a complex issue with medical, social and moral dimensions. Abstinence, contraceptive use, and comprehensive sex education are discussed as ways to further reduce unintended teen pregnancies.
WSYA Graz, Austria - November 2011
1) Unsafe abortions are a major reproductive health challenge, accounting for 24 million procedures and over 360,000 deaths annually.
2) Lack of access to contraception and family planning services, as well as social factors like poverty, early marriage, and gender inequality contribute to high rates of unwanted pregnancy and unsafe abortion.
3) Improving access to contraception, comprehensive sexuality education, and safe abortion and post-abortion care services can help reduce maternal mortality from unsafe abortion and advance progress on Millennium Development Goal 5 of improving maternal health.

Teen Pregnancy A Preventable Epidemic Our natio.docx
Teen Pregnancy: A Preventable Epidemic
Our nation is facing an adolescent reproductive-health crisis, with one in four teenage
girls having a sexually transmitted disease, and one in three becoming pregnant before
the age of 20.1 To address this challenge, teens must be able to obtain confidential and
affordable reproductive-health services. However, anti-choice politicians have stymied
efforts to give teens the tools they need to protect themselves against unintended
pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). We continue to call on lawmakers
– pro-choice and pro-life alike – to work together to achieve real solutions – instead of
divisiveness.
The Facts
In spite of a recent decline, the United States still has the highest rate of teen pregnancy
in the western industrialized world.2 Studies show that the United States’ teen-
pregnancy rate is more than twice that of Canada and Sweden.3
§ Approximately 750,000 young women in the United States become pregnant each
year. Eighty-two percent of teen pregnancies are unplanned 4 and more than a
quarter of those end in abortion.5
§ Teen mothers are less likely to complete school, less likely go to college, more
likely to have large families, and more likely to stay single – increasing the
likelihood that their children will live in poverty.6
§ In addition to other consequences for young women and their children, teen
childbearing costs U.S. taxpayers at least $11 billion annually.7
§ A sexually active teen who does not use contraception has a 90-percent chance of
becoming pregnant within a year.8
Potentially due to factors such as decreased access to health-care services and
information, racial and ethnic disparities persist in the reproductive health of young
Americans.
§ The problem of teen pregnancy is more pronounced in the African-American and
Latino communities, where rates of teen pregnancy are higher than those in
white communities – 15 percent and 14 percent respectively, compared to five
percent.9
2
§ Fifty-three percent of Latina teens and 51 percent of African-American teen girls
will become pregnant at least once before they turn 20. In comparison, only 19
percent of non-Hispanic white teen girls will become pregnant before the age of
20.10
A Failed Approach
Anti-choice lawmakers and advocates seized on this public-health crisis as an
opportunity to enact one of their longtime goals: withhold sex education from young
people in a misguided attempt to discourage them from having sex. Instead, they spent
more than $1 billion in taxpayer funds on “abstinence-only” programs11 – programs that
censor vital health information about contraception and safe sex. The approach has been
a spectacular failure.
§ Research shows that “abstinence-only” programs do not work and that
comprehensive sex-education programs do. In 2007, a report commissioned by
the U.S. Department of H ...
Birth control
Teens will experiment with sex whether or not they have access to contraceptives. If teens cannot get birth control on their own, they are unlikely to ask parents for consent due to embarrassment or fear. Most teen pregnancies are unplanned, and many end in abortion or having a second child within two years. Educating teens about sex and birth control is important to help reduce risks and costs to society. While birth control is reliable, no method is 100% effective so teens should be given the option to access it without parental consent.

TEEN AGE PREGNANCY (1).pptx
Teenage pregnancy is defined as any pregnancy in girls aged 10-19 by the WHO. This developmental period prepares girls for motherhood. Teenage pregnancy is more accepted in developing countries where girls often marry and get pregnant young. Causes of teenage pregnancy include increased sexuality due to media influences, lack of supervision, and peer pressure to have sex. Many teens also have unprotected sex due to difficulties accessing and using contraception as well as misconceptions about fertility. This can lead to complications for both mother and child such as poor prenatal care, nutritional deficiencies, anemia, preterm birth, low birthweight, maternal and infant mortality. Early motherhood can negatively impact education and psychological development for both mother and child
Chapter two maternal and child health care
Maternal mortality is a major problem in developing countries. The main causes are hemorrhage, infection, hypertensive disorders, obstructed labor, and unsafe abortion. Factors contributing to poor maternal health include lack of access to healthcare, malnutrition, poverty, and low social status of women. Improving access to family planning, skilled birth attendants, and emergency obstetric care can help reduce maternal deaths from preventable causes.
Focus on the health and care of young people - poster
The document discusses various health metrics and trends among young people in England. It notes that drinking, smoking, and drug use have decreased among secondary school pupils in the last decade. However, fewer children are meeting recommended levels of physical activity. Dental caries remain the most common hospital diagnosis for children aged 5-9. Referral rates for psychological therapies have increased and are twice as high for 15-19 year old female teenagers than males.
Why abortion should_be_illegal
The document argues that abortion should be illegal for several reasons. It provides statistics on abortion in the US and notes that adoption is a viable alternative. The document claims that abortion can cause psychological and physical harm to women. It also argues that the fetus has legal rights and that abortion is against a doctor's oath to do no harm. The document concludes that abortion amounts to murder and should be banned.
Abortion in America and Vietnam
The document provides information about abortion rates and policies in Vietnam and America in 3-4 sentences:
1) Abortion is legal in both countries but more restricted in America, with about 1.2 million abortions annually compared to 120,000-130,000 in Vietnam.
2) In Vietnam, limited education and awareness of contraception contribute to abortion, with the highest rates in less educated women.
3) America has seen declines in its abortion rate but it remains higher than other regions, with over 40% of pregnancies ending in abortion, particularly among black and minority women.
4) Both countries show most abortions occurring early in pregnancy, within 9 weeks, but Vietnam has rising

Sinnerstext.docx
The passage is a sermon warning listeners of God's wrath against sinners and their precarious situation hanging over the fires of Hell only by God's mercy. It describes sinners as weighted down by wickedness and wholly reliant on God's restraint of his vengeance. The sermon uses imagery of floods, arrows, and fire to emphasize how inescapable divine wrath will be once released and how foolish it would be for listeners to remain in such a perilous state. It aims to frighten listeners into accepting Jesus Christ anew to escape this doom.
Anne bradstreet
Anne Bradstreet (1612-1672) was born in London to a Puritan nobleman father. She married Simon Bradstreet, a graduate of Cambridge University, when she was 16 years old. In 1630, she sailed with her father and husband from England to Boston to settle in Massachusetts. Bradstreet spent the rest of her life in New England, caring for her eight children and frequently falling ill in the wilderness. Her poetry collection, published in 1650, was remarkable as the first volume of poems published by an American and one of the first volumes of poetry in English written by a woman. The poem "To My Dear and Loving Husband" expresses her deep love for her husband.

Key steps are to go outside and listen to nature's sounds without distractions, incorporate feelings and observations into writing, note specifics of the outing, and continue writing spontaneously without editing to capture impressions.
Emerson aphorism
This document defines the term "aphorism" as an observation that contains a general truth or principle written in a memorable form that is short and concise but packs meaning. It instructs readers to look for and mark up Emerson's aphorism tweets, connections to other works and their own lives, and questions while paying special attention to Emerson's deliberate word choices and sentence structures, asking why he chose them.
From self reliance
Emerson argues that true genius and self-reliance means speaking your own internal convictions rather than conforming to external traditions or the opinions of others. He believes we should have faith in our own thoughts and impressions, even if they contradict the views of society. True greatness requires nonconformity and being misunderstood rather than seeking the approval of others through imitation or conformity. We should remain true to our own mind and individuality.
Self reliance questions.docx
Emerson's "Self-Reliance" text provides 8 multiple choice questions about the passage. The questions assess understanding of vocabulary, figurative language, central ideas, tone, and allusions. They require determining the meaning of the word "latent", analyzing figurative language, identifying the central advice given, and understanding how historical figures are used to support arguments in the text. Overall, the questions gauge comprehension of key elements in Emerson's discussion of self-reliance.

True greatness requires nonconformity and being misunderstood rather than seeking the approval of others through imitation or conformity. We should remain true to our own mind and individuality.
From nature
In the opening pages of his first book, Nature (1836), Emerson argues that habit and tradition have become a way of living secondhand, by the ideas and truths of former times. In contrast is the renewal of the spirit offered by nature, which enlarges our own vision and empowers us to create “our own works and laws...” Later, Emerson describes how nature restores the tone of the mind and body worn down by work or poor company. He also notes how the changing beauty of nature satisfies the human spirit and can make us feel god-like without any physical benefits.
Writing from sources rubric
This document provides scoring criteria for argument essays that analyze multiple texts. It evaluates essays across 5 levels based on their demonstration of content and analysis, command of evidence, coherence and organization, and control of conventions. The highest level introduces insightful claims and in-depth text analysis. Lower levels introduce less precise claims and demonstrate less accurate or confused text analysis. All levels are expected to cite evidence from the texts, but higher levels do so more fully and thoughtfully. Organization, language usage, and grammar are also assessed, with the top levels exhibiting sophisticated writing. An essay must address all assigned texts and make references to them to score above a 3. Personal responses or copies of the task/texts would receive lower scores.

Sinners MC
The document contains 5 multiple choice questions about the passage "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God". The questions assess that the overall purpose is to frighten listeners into accepting Jesus Christ again through terrifying descriptions of doom and God's wrath. Descriptions of floods and arrows emphasize the inescapable doom facing the audience. The rhetorical question emphasizes the consequence of inaction or sin. The repetition of fire imagery reinforces the threatening tone but does not offer hope. The author would agree that faithful conversion is needed to escape God's wrath, not just religious behavior.

Puritanpowerpoint 121014091636-phpapp01
The Puritans believed in three core beliefs: grace, plainness, and their divine mission to create a new religious community in America free from persecution. They kept diaries and wrote poetry and religious sermons in a plain style using simple language to describe their spiritual journeys and relationship with God. Their writings were meant to help others understand the Bible on a deeper level and to serve as useful resources for examining one's spiritual life and quest for salvation.
Puritanpowerpoint1 110824022823-phpapp02
The Puritan Age/Colonial Period from 1600-1700 saw Puritans like John Winthrop leave England's corrupt churches and establish societies in America based on God's word. Puritan writing was the first American writing and influenced American literature with its plain, powerful style. Puritan writings focused on spiritual themes like sin, salvation, and following God's will, and were aimed to help understand the Bible. Notable Puritan writers included Anne Bradstreet, Edward Taylor, Cotton Mather, and Jonathan Edwards.
