Prepare a 7- to 10-slide Microsoft ® PowerPoint ® presentation addressing the following questions: What neurological disorder, disease, or accident took place to interrupt this individual’s ability? What behaviors were exhibited by this individual following the disorder, disease, or accident? What were the individual’s deficits as a result of this disorder, disease, or accident? What treatments did the individual seek? Were any available at the time? What are the research implications of the case study? How did this help scientists and doctors better understand the disorder or disease? How did this case help scientists and doctors better understand how the brain works? Note : Include substantive speaker notes PLEASE APA FORMAT · The Case of Phineas Gage One of the best-known clinical cases involved a dramatic injury to an unfortunate railroad worker, Phineas Gage.

The Case of Phineas Gage
One of the best-known clinical cases
involved a dramatic injury to an unfortunate railroad worker,
Phineas Gage. One day in 1848, he was working on track
construction near Cavendish, Vermont. While Gage was placing
an explosive charge, a spark of metal against rock set off the
charge, sending a long metal tamping rod flying upwards. The
rod entered Gage's head just below the left eye, and exited from
the tab of his skull, somewhat forward of left center.
Remarkably, Gage survived (though he was blinded in his left
eye). Even more remarkably, his behavior changed dramatically.
Whereas Gage had previously been likeable and responsible, he
became erratic, and given to terrible fits of temper. Sadly, he
spent his remaining years wandering around the United States,
displaying the hole in his skull and the iron rod which had
brought him such grief.
Gage's story has been a source of endless fascination ever since.
(His skull, and the iron rod, is still on display in the Harvard
Medical School museum.) Given the pathway of the rod through
his head, it would seem that the injury extensively damaged the
association areas of the left frontal lobe. The behavioral
changes, especially in emotionality, have been used as evidence
that this region is involved in the expression of emotion. (A

Homeland Security efforts are ably reinforced by Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA), which are missions executed by the Department of Defense (DOD), most specifically by the Combatant Command, United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM). In supporting the nation when requested by DHS, FEMA, or other lead federal agencies, or as directed by the president or the secretary of defense, DOD provides many unique capabilities for crisis response. One specific function used most notably during the post-Hurricane Katrina period was the use of airborne assets to provide damage assessments and to gauge the extent of the sea surge at various times during the recovery. The function of deploying such assets is traditionally called intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). Yet the U.S. military cannot legally collect intelligence on U.S. citizens. Consequently, the action, as performed during the hurricane recovery operations described here, is known as incident awareness and assessments (IAA). For some, the difference between these terms is merely semantics; for many, IAA differs both symbolically and practically from ISR, if not in how information is collected, then in how it is used and the motivation behind the collection. (The Web site for IAA reference is under Web sites references below.) Assignment Guidelines Address the following in 5–7 paragraphs: Do you believe the distinction between ISR and IAA lies simply with terminology (and therefore there is little or no difference) or that there is a separation between the concepts? Explain and defend your answer fully. You may choose to research the topic more fully. Contemplating the ethics of using IAA in the homeland, list at least 3 benefits of its use where ethics might potentially be secondary. List at least 2–3 costs or opposing views to its use and how IAA—or the information gathered—might be misused or abused. What if criminal activity (like acres of tended marijuana) was observed during IAA missions intended to conduct damage assessments? How should such information be handled? Do you believe converting the term intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance to incident awareness and assessments for operations conducted in the homeland was wise or frivolous (or described otherwise)? Explain and defend your answer fully. What is the value of using carefully selected terminology for operations in the homeland? How does the symbolism of IAA potentially aid homeland security professionals in performing their jobs? How does the symbolism of ISR potentially hinder homeland security professionals in performing their jobs? Among the Web sites listed for this unit, you will find the Air Forces North (AFNORTH) Incident Awareness and Assessment Handbook, June 2010. Why do you think this manual on IAA is available from open-source sites? Do you think there might be ethical considerations to publicizing the use and purposes of IAA? Name and discuss at least 1.

Submit the assignment before the deadline. Part A) A Reaction to Racism in American Literature, Art, and Music In the latter part of the 19th century, "Realism" became the dominant feature in American literature and influenced the Progressive Era writers of the early 20th century. In the years immediately following World War I, a number of American authors of the realist school began to explore race relations. Dramatists such as Eugene O'Neill and Paul Green wrote plays based on African American themes. O'Neill's The Emperor Jones (1920) and All God's Chillun Got Wings (1924) were immensely popular. Green won the Pulitzer Prize for In Abraham's Bosom, a play performed by a predominately African American cast in a period when few African American artists were able to find work outside vaudeville or minstrel shows. At the same time, a number of African American writers came to prominence writing novels and poetry based on their experiences as African Americans. This literary movement, originally centered in Harlem, New York, became known as the "Harlem Renaissance" (1920s-1930s). It was the outgrowth of a number of factors including the Great Migration to northern cities and the growing anger over both overt and covert racism. Authors, musicians, and painters gathered in Harlem and in other large urban areas throughout the North and developed a distinctly African American cultural movement cognizant of the political, economic, and social issues of prejudice and discrimination that were part of the Black experience in America. Historians have described the Harlem Renaissance as a period in which the African American writer ". . . had achieved a degree and kind of articulation that make it possible for him to transform his feelings into a variety of literary forms. Despite his intense feelings of hate and hurt, he possessed sufficient restraint and objectivity to use his materials artistically, but no less effectively." (John Hope Franklin, From Slavery to Freedom: A History of African Americans, .

Historical Background of Housing Policy Housing is one of the requirements in human life (not true!) . Therefore, it greatly influences the day to day life of citizens in a country as well as the country's economy. As a result of its importance, there should be secure policies in the state that protect citizens against exploitation and the economy of the nation This is not a neutral statement of the evidence (Turis, 2011). Good housing provided with essential social amenities means healthy lives for the citizens since they will be enjoying all the services . Poor housing, for instance, can result in health issues for the individuals of a given society. Crime rates are also found to be higher in places with inadequate housing and this becomes a threat may be a threat to the security of the community. The housing policy , ?????? therefore, was formed so as to address the housing challenges facing the nation and its citizens (Turis, 2011). indent To deal with the housing problems (what housing problems?) the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program (The correct name is Section 8 of the Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. § 1437f) was established in 1974 as the Housing Act (Turis, 2011). This housing policy enables low income earners to pay for houses of their choice in the private market. The state funds the program and as a result, it benefits over five million low-income families as it enables them to pay for the housing with ease . Provision of the vouchers is one of the policies ways in which the state addresses the housing problem for its citizens (Turis, 2011). Compared to other policies such as…. , vouchers provide a wider range of shelter and they are less expensive. For the low-income earners to use the vouchers, the kind of houses they find should not exceed the maximum allowable rent by the vouchers and must be in line with the program policies. The program also covers a wide variety of houses which include single family home; this was aimed at small families. Apartments and houses in towns are also covered by the program. This description of the HCV is not clear. indent The housing voucher programs is managed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (Kotz, 2012) . Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) are the ones responsible for carrying out the local programs outlines (Kotz, 2012) . The mode of operation of this program is that an individual finds a suitable house for them to live and they pay rent to the landlords. The subsidy for the rent is paid by the PHAs to the owners of the house directly, and the person receiving such voucher will have to pay the remaining amount of money to the landlord (Kotz, 2012) . Therefore, in this program, the kind of benefits the citizens receive is subsidies on the rent they pay to the owners. A Certain amount is paid by the PHAs on the behalf of the low-income families, which makes houses relatively cheaper for citizens to choose where they want to li.
