1) The document discusses the challenges faced by people with disabilities in Ontario, including high rates of poverty and unemployment.
2) It notes that a upcoming government report may propose merging disability support payments with welfare, which could substantially lower monthly incomes for those receiving disability support.
3) While the government aims to get more people with disabilities working to reduce dependence on social programs, the document argues this approach risks further exclusion and failure given barriers in the workplace. A broader shift in societal attitudes is needed instead.
Health & Welfare the search for rational strategy. Thomas R. Dye
This document discusses definitions and criticisms of poverty in America. It notes that liberal critics believe the official poverty definition underestimates poverty, while conservative critics challenge elements of the definition as well. It also examines factors associated with poverty such as family structure, race, age, and wealth. Government social programs aimed at reducing poverty are outlined, along with debates around their effectiveness and potential disincentives.

Patty murray power point
Many Americans lack health insurance, with numbers increasing in recent years. Those most at risk include the unemployed, low-income families, ethnic/racial minorities, children, older adults, and those with mental illness. While costs continue rising, Medicare benefits have decreased and prescription drug costs have increased. The document argues that re-electing Senator Patty Murray is important as she supports increasing access to healthcare, while her opponent Dino Rossi opposes recent healthcare reforms aimed at expanding coverage.

The document summarizes the findings of surveys of non-profits and individuals in Ohio regarding economic struggles and the social safety net. The surveys found that:
1) Non-profits saw large increases (average of 60%) in demand for services like food and shelter from 2008-2011. Many turned clients away due to lack of resources.
2) Individuals reported problems with health care, hunger, and meeting basic needs despite being employed. Over 80% of respondents earned less than $30,000 annually.
3) Both non-profits and individuals supported reforms like increasing funding for social programs, making health care more affordable, expanding job training programs, and raising eligibility levels for assistance.
Iwf recovery act_7_01_2010
The document discusses the impacts of the economic crisis and the federal stimulus package. It summarizes that big banks caused the crisis through risky lending practices. The stimulus package helped stop job losses, support state budgets, and fund projects that helped the economic recovery. However, stimulus money for states is ending and large deficits face states in 2011, which could undermine the recovery without further federal aid. The document argues for organizing support to request more federal funding.
FIX_HOUSING
This document discusses how investing in housing can help create jobs, attract businesses, and restore the economy. It notes that a lack of affordable and stable housing has negatively impacted many Minnesotans through rising homelessness, higher housing costs, and job losses. Maintaining current funding for agencies that support housing would leverage additional funds and ultimately create over 8,000 jobs and add $1.4 billion to Minnesota's economy while helping families and stabilizing communities.
Thinking Big - Value Families At Work
The document discusses the need for policies that support families in the workplace, such as paid family leave and paid sick days. It outlines strategies that have been successful in passing such policies at the state level, including building broad coalitions, telling personal stories to demonstrate real needs, and making the business case. It argues that federal action is now needed to establish minimum standards nationwide and lists actions the executive branch, agencies, and Congress could take to achieve this goal and value families in the workplace.

Hsl 2010 presentation
The document discusses a replacement levy on the ballot in Montgomery County, Ohio to fund human services programs. If passed, the levy would replace an expiring levy and generate $61 million annually for critical services like child protective services, services for the developmentally disabled, home care for seniors, substance abuse treatment, and job assistance programs. Without the levy, the county would lose almost half of its funding for health and human services and be forced to cut many vital programs during a time of increased demand. The levy costs the average homeowner $1.30 per month.

Disability Counselor
This document proposes that credit unions create a Disability Counselor position to target the growing disabled community market segment. A Disability Counselor who is disabled themself could effectively communicate the credit union's capabilities to meet the unique needs of people with disabilities. Over 30% of Americans acquire a disability before retirement, and most will be disabled by age 75. As the population ages, the number of disabled and elderly Americans will also greatly increase. People with disabilities represent a sizable portion of household spending and assets, making them an attractive market for credit unions.
Facts
The document compares the economic records of Presidents Bush and Obama:
1) Under Bush, unemployment fell and tax revenue increased after he cut taxes, while under Obama unemployment rose after his stimulus package despite higher government spending.
2) Oil prices have risen under Obama as he has reduced offshore drilling and permit approvals, slowing energy independence.
3) Government worker pension funds have invested over $1.5 billion in Bain Capital, benefiting from Romney's economic stewardship, while taxpayers lost billions on Obama's failed company investments.
Rc na pp-usccb
The United States Catholic Bishops wrote a pastoral letter in 1986 addressing economic justice and inequality. It advocated for policies that promote the common good, protect the right to gainful employment, and ensure tax systems raise enough revenue from wealthier citizens to help the poor. The bishops called on governments and societies to provide assistance, training, and education to help the unemployed and disadvantaged become self-sufficient through work.
Go Big Obama
The letter urges President Obama to present an ambitious jobs plan that directly creates millions of jobs through bold initiatives like infrastructure investment and green jobs programs. It argues that half measures like tax cuts have failed and a large, direct jobs program is needed to tackle the 25 million Americans unemployed or underemployed. The letter endorses Representative Jan Schakowsky's "Emergency Jobs to Restore the American Dream Act" as an example of the kind of initiative that should be included and calls for funding it through higher taxes on the wealthy.

N.J. Health Reform update - 2019
This document summarizes New Jersey's efforts to reform its health care system and preserve the Affordable Care Act. It discusses the state's high health care costs and rates of uninsured prior to the ACA. The new law in New Jersey requires residents to have minimum essential health coverage, establishes a state-run health insurance exchange, provides reinsurance to insurance companies, and levies a tax on commercial policies to fund the exchange. However, the reforms do little to control escalating health care spending or prices in New Jersey. Challenges remain such as the potential for insurers to cherry-pick healthier customers through the use of stop-loss insurance.

Sass Oct 22 2010 NAST
The National Association of State Treasurers expressed concern that Milwaukee would lose a $1.2 million economic boost if the 2012 annual conference was not held there. The conference location was secured by State Treasurer Dawn Marie Sass, who is up for re-election and faces a challenger who has pledged to eliminate the office of State Treasurer. Without an office of State Treasurer, the conference would not take place in Wisconsin and Milwaukee would lose out on the significant revenue.

The Borgen Project works to advocate for policies that address global poverty by meeting with US leaders, mobilizing public support, and educating citizens on these issues. They believe wealthy countries like the US should do more to help the 1 billion people without clean water and 2 billion without sanitation, as poverty can be largely prevented through international cooperation. For a fraction of the military budget, world hunger could be ended and many lives improved. The organization focuses on advocacy over direct aid as it can impact more people through influencing policies that support the poor.
Changing the disability poverty paradigm(1)
- The document discusses poverty and disability in the United States, noting that people with disabilities experience the highest rates of poverty of any subpopulation. It presents data showing that 27.9% of people with disabilities lived in poverty in 2010.
- It argues that a "cyclical dependency model" results in long-term impoverishment for people with disabilities, while a "self-sufficiency investment model" enables independence and community participation. Community-based services are more cost-effective than institutionalization and can help people with disabilities work and be self-sufficient.
- The document calls for transformational leadership and a shift toward policies that focus on the abilities of people with disabilities rather than their limitations in order to promote
New Federalism
The document discusses the shift from Democrat to Republican governance in California and the federal government in the 1970s-80s. A Republican governor came to power in California at a time when the public was dissatisfied with the large role of the federal government. This led to states regaining more power through tax cuts, spending cuts, and reduced federal grants. The Republican Congress under Newt Gingrich further promoted reducing federal power and increasing state control with policies like "devolution."

Science project
This document discusses household cleaners and proper disposal. It is summarized in three parts: impacts on the environment if cleaners are not properly disposed, potential harm from chemicals being released uncontrolled into the environment, and recommended solutions such as using safer alternatives like baking soda and properly disposing of hazardous cleaners.
Household Cleaners and the Enviroment
This document discusses household cleaners and proper disposal. It notes that toxic chemicals from cleaners can easily contaminate the environment by getting into soil, waterways, and wildlife. Once released, these chemicals are not controlled and can cause excess plant growth or pollution through smog. The document recommends using cleaners responsibly, exploring safer alternatives like baking soda, and proper disposal through household hazardous waste programs to limit environmental impacts.
Risks Due To Chemicals In Food by Sharanya Nagaraj
All living things, including food and human bodies, are composed of chemicals. Many foods naturally contain potentially harmful chemicals like dioxins, aflatoxin, and acrylamide. Food additives are also used to preserve flavor, taste, and appearance, with common additives being preservatives, flavors, and colors. While chemicals are present in all foods, some can be toxic in high amounts.
Nitrogen fertilizers
Nitrogen is a key nutrient necessary for plant growth. It stimulates chloroplasts and photosynthesis. Without sufficient nitrogen, plants will be pale, yellow, and eventually die. Nitrogen fertilizers are important for agriculture by enabling high crop yields but can pollute waterways if overused. Excess nitrogen in lakes and oceans can decrease oxygen levels and harm marine life.

Fertilizers-Meenu -Powerpoint
The document discusses the production and types of fertilizers. It notes that fertilizers contain nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to enhance plant growth. Nitrogen fertilizers are produced from ammonia using the Haber-Bosch process. Phosphate fertilizers are obtained by extracting phosphate rock and treating it with acids. Compound fertilizers contain nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium and are produced by mixing or reacting straight fertilizers. The use of fertilizers has increased crop yields but can cause issues if overapplied.
Chemicals in food
This document discusses chemicals that are commonly used in food production and their potential health effects. It notes that methylcyclopropene is used to preserve apples and bananas, while artificial colors and flavors are added to fruits. Some doctors disagree with the use of new food chemicals. The document also addresses packaging chemicals, foodborne illness costs, and the role of chemicals in chronic diseases. Tips are provided on safe food shopping, storage, and basic home treatment for food poisoning.
Household Chemicals
This document lists common household chemicals and warns that they can become hazardous waste if not disposed of properly. It notes that household chemicals should not be mixed, as that can create toxic and dangerous substances. The document provides resources on the dangers of common household chemicals.

Role of chemistry in every day life
This document discusses the role of chemistry in everyday life. It notes that chemistry is important in areas like food, medicine, diseases, and daily activities. The human body itself is largely composed of chemical compounds - roughly 96% of the human body's mass is made up of just four elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen. Chemistry helps in understanding vitamins, supplements, and how drugs can help or harm the body. It also plays a role in medical research to understand diseases on a molecular level.
Detergent powder
This document discusses the ingredients and properties of detergent powders and soaps. Detergent powders are composed mainly of surfactants, plasticizers, binders, fillers, and water. Soap ingredients include fats/oils, alkalis like sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, and glycerin as a byproduct. Glycerin is a natural moisturizer that is separated from soap through a distillation process. Alkalis help emulsify oils and remove dirt through saponification reactions with fatty acids. Different ingredients provide functions like cleaning power, softness, or antimicrobial properties depending on the intended product.

The document summarizes Illinois' fiscal crisis and budget challenges. It notes that Illinois faces a $13.7 billion operating deficit for FY2011, equal to 52.2% of its general revenue fund appropriations. To address this, Illinois relies heavily on one-time revenues like debt issuance, fund sweeps, and federal stimulus funds. Over the long term, Illinois has seen the loss of high-paying manufacturing jobs replaced with lower paying service jobs without benefits. This has contributed to economic problems and budget deficits that Illinois has struggled to adequately address through recurring revenues and spending priorities.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. What is Obesity? How to overcome Obesity?
