The U.S. government keeps statistics on many people in America. One interesting statistic is the poverty rate. To be living in poverty, one must earn income below a certain threshold (approximately $900 per month). Many multimillionaires are included in this statistic. Recently, Barbara Streisand was "living in poverty." In a particular year, she did not perform live, and her album sales were extremely slow. She has a great deal of wealth but had little income that year. Although she has more money than 99.99% of the rest of the population, the government believed that she was impoverished. What other statistic can you name that is misleading? Why? .

The tragedies of 9/11 marked a turning point in the perception of the word “crisis,” especially to people in the United States who had never experienced such an attack on their own soil. The attacks were also a turning point in the perceptions of crisis management and crisis communications. A crisis management/communications plan saved the lives of numerous people in the World Trade Center (WTC) on that fateful day. Rick Rescola was head of security for Morgan Stanley, which occupied 40 floors in one of the WTC towers. After the 1993 terrorist attack on the WTC, Rescola formed a crisis management team to try to avert an attack or to help employees survive another attack. The team members were in agreement that another attack would occur, and that it would probably occur at the WTC because of the symbolism of the towers being the tallest in the United States. Team Rescola, as it was called, determined that the next attack would not be a ground attack, because the garage was protected after the 1993 incident. They even took a test flight around the buildings and predicted the attack would be by air. Crisis communications was necessary to convince employees and managers that preparations needed to be made and that training for evacuation was necessary, and to explain how it would be done. Subsequently, there were drills. Rescola had lighting put in the stairways, and every person knew where the stairways were. When the planes struck, WTC security advised all persons that it was safer to stay in the building. Rescola and his team began to evacuate employees. A glitch occurred in that one of the stairways was blocked by debris. Visibility was hampered either by smoke or darkness or both. Survivors and some of Rescola’s team members, consultants who were not in the building at the time, told the History Channel that team Rescola went to each floor and yelled, “Is anyone here?” If so, they led them out by alternate stairways. They say the team saved 95 percent of the total number of Morgan Stanley employees. However, there was not enough time for them to reach every floor. Rescola and some of his team members died when the buildings collapsed. His wife said, when she saw the buildings go down on television, she knew her husband was there still trying to get everyone out. Questions 1. Consider the Rescola story, what should offices in skyscrapers and large buildings do other than plan for evacuations? 2. Imagine the employees who objected to the training: what would be persuasive messages to them? 3. The 1993 attack was considered a prodrome by Rescola. Why didn't others see it? 4. In a crisis situation, using the image restoration theory, how could an organization determine which publics should receive which messages? Why would you send different messages to different publics? Must be at least 250 words supported by at least two references .

the topic The American poet, Emily Dickinson, had a sad life in which she suffered from health problems and succession of losses. These tragic deaths of her beloved ones affected her writing and style of expression. It can be seen that there is a recurrence of the theme death and immortality in her poems. She imagines death in a lot of different ways such as a buzzing fly. This research paper will tackle her style in several poems such as “I felt a funeral in my brain”, “Because I could not stop for Death”, “I heard a fly buzz when I died” and “my life closed twice before it’s close” a research paper in which you use the computer to analyze the data to make a frequency list, concordance, and collocations and i want her to tell me which program she used and how https://wmtang.org/corpus-linguistics/corpus-linguistics/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nbJGdYS3Is im talking about the theme of death and immortality and i want her to prove that her works are dominated by this theme she can add other poems by emily dickenson if she wants MLA style 15 pages with a brief proposal Al-balawi 6 Are Graphic Novels Literature: MAUS: a Survivor’s Tale as a Model Literature has an ever-broadening definition. Oxford advanced learner’s English dictionary defines literature as a piece of writing that is valued as a work of art. With such a broad definition who is to say that newspapers, graffiti, advertisement and even shopping lists are not literature. For many years graphic novels have been considered immature and lacking of literary qualities and the debate of whether or not they are a form of literature has been put on pause. After the winning of Art Spiegelman’s graphic novel Maus: a Survivor’s Tale with Pulitzer’s literary prize, and Alan Moore’s graphic novel Watchmen being listed as one of all-time best novels by Time magazine, the subject has been opened for debate again. This research aims to address the highly controversial topic of whether graphic novels are literature or not, and intends to answer the question by conducting a study on Art Spiegelman’s graphic novel Maus: a Survivor’s Tale. The presented research will try to answer the main question Are Graphic Novels Literature?. The research will study Maus: a Survivor’s Tale by applying elements of literature such as plot, symbols, characters, themes, tone and setting. Review of the literature: Budick, Emily Miller.

The topic of your lesson this week is Biotechnology and Genomics . A designer baby is a human embryo which has been genetically modified, usually following guidelines set by the parent or scientist, to produce desirable traits. This is done using various methods, such as germline engineering or pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) . This technology is the subject of ethical debate, bringing up the concept of genetically modified "superhumans" to interbreed with and eventually replace modern humans. Creating genetically modified children is no longer a science fiction fantasy, it's likely a future scenario. Biologist Paul Knoepfler estimates that within fifteen years, scientists could use the gene editing technology CRISPR to make certain 'upgrades' to human embryos-from altering appearances to eliminating the risk of auto-immune diseases. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis has the ability to select an embryo based on gender preferences. Since changing a gender is not needed, but desired this could cause much controversy. Additionally, the procedure is able to create a donor offspring or a “savior sibling”, which can assist a pre-existing offspring for medical purposes. PGD can help select for desirable traits by avoiding implanting embryos with genes that have serious diseases or disabilities. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing is used to match patients and donors for bone marrow or cord blood transplants. HLA are proteins, or markers, found on most cells of your body. Your immune system uses these markers to recognize which cells belong in your body and which do not. It's a donor whose HLA are very closely matched to the recipients. The best donors for HLA are siblings. Siblings are more closely matched than non siblings. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technology (ART) commonly referred to as IVF. IVF is the process of fertilization by extracting eggs, retrieving a sperm sample, and then manually combining an egg and sperm in a laboratory dish. The embryo(s) is then transferred to the uterus. The first designer baby in the United States was Adam Nash was from Colorado in 1990. In 1989 Adam Nash was conceived to save his 6 year old sister Molly, who was dying from an extremely rare genetic disease called Fanconi anemia . This rare bone marrow failure disease is passed down through families as an autosomal recessive disease. It results in decreased production of all types of red blood cells. Molly was unable to find a bone marrow match for a transplant. Through IVF, HLA Typing, and PGD, the Nash family had Adam. He had the stem cells in his umbilical cord that would save her life. Molly is now 23 years old. The Nash family went on to have a third, healthy child through IVF, again selecting an embryo without the Fanconi gene. The book My Sister's Keeper (2009) was written by Jodi Picoult and loosely based on the Nash family. It is now a movie starring Cameron Diaz and Abigail Breslin. Britain's fi.
