Imagine that there’s a proposal in your home town/city (or Evansville, if you prefer) to replace a coal-fired power plant with a nuclear power plant. Would you be for this or against this proposal?
Pick a side, then write a 2-3 page informal paper defending your position, explaining why you take that position (at least 4 reasons). Then, in the last paragraph, briefly summarize what you think the 3 most convincing arguments are on the other side of the argument. This is informal, so you can cite sources, but you just need to include a link to the page you found (no bibliography necessary).
to make sure you can write about evansville city or my town city riyadh saudi arabia

Chief Complaint
“My left foot feels weak and numb. I have a hard time pointing my toes up.”
History of Present Illness
D.T. is 42-year-old Caucasian woman who has had an elevated blood sugar and cholesterol 2 years ago but did not follow up with a clinical diagnostic work-up. She had participated in the state’s annual health screening program and noticed her fasting blood sugar was 160 and her cholesterol was 250. However, she felt “perfectly fine at the time” and did not want to take any more medications. Except for a number of “female infections,” she has felt fine recently.
Today, she presents to the clinic complaining that her left foot has been weak and numb for nearly 3 weeks and that the foot is difficult to flex. She denies any other weakness or numbness at this time. She does report that she has been very thirsty lately and gets up more often at night to urinate. She has attributed these symptoms to the extremely warm weather and drinking more water to keep hydrated. She has gained a total of 50 pounds since her last pregnancy 10 years ago, 20 pounds in the last 6 months alone.

(10 point lab grade) Section – __________
No individual really wants our environment to be destroyed. And there are many who try their
best to do the right thing. But most often we are living excessive lifestyles that are encouraged by our
culture of having more stuff than our neighbors and the dollar is more important than life itself.
Government regulations can sometimes save us from ourselves and help life to run more
smoothly. Like simple rules of driving on the right side of the road or requiring factories to control their
pollution. High taxes on gasoline would reduce the use and those taxes could be used for public
transport. The more populated and complex our global society becomes, the more we need to get
organized and make rules that will save us from excessive environmental destruction that may benefit
the owner but is harming other people and wildlife.
A democracy works well when voters are EDUCATED about the issues and those who are running
for office. The voting turnout for local elections is often below 30%. American democracy would work
MUCH better if we all remember that local, state and national environmental regulations are ALL
important and we need to learn and to vote. Our local water & air quality, preservation of ecosystems
and our health rely on local government as well as national government.
1. Find out what “Tragedy of the Commons” means and describe how this relates to “good”
government controls. (1point)
2.. Go to this Virginia Department of Elections website http://elections.virginia.gov/ (or go to your own
state) and explain how you can cast an absentee vote when you need to. (1point) (REGISTER TO VOTE if
you have not done so.) – Use my home state – Virginia
3. Nov 5, 2019 is voting day. Find ballot info through
https://ballotpedia.org/Sample_Ballot Lookup You do NOT have to give your email or home address –
just your zip code will give a lot of info PRINT & attach the chart that shows the actual “My ballot”
names. (2 points) – Use my Zip Code “20132”
4. Choose a pair of important Virginia candidates that are from different political parties and running for
the same office from your ballot. (mayor? senator? Governor?) Name them, find their websites to find
any information you can on how each stands or how they have voted on environmental issues. This
question is worth 60% of this grade. So I expect that you will have a list of at least 4 important
environmental stances for EACH of the 2 opposing candidates you choose. You may cut and paste a
summary of their stance & what they plan to do. You may have to call or email their office to find out
where they stand – on climate change, water quality, fossil fuels, pesticide use, air pollution,
environmental education etc. Ask them to send a written statement to your email, unless they have it
posted online. You are a voter and have the right to know.
Overview
In this discussion board, you will read the “Bad Blood” Case Study provided in instructional materials. After completing the reading. Give some thought to the following questions and post your response in the DB:
Your initial post must be posted before you can view and respond to colleagues, must contain minimum of two (2) references, in addition to examples from your personal experiences to augment the topic. The goal is to make your post interesting and engaging so others will want to read/respond to it. Synthesize and summarize from your resources in order to avoid the use of direct quotes, which can often be dry and boring. No direct quotes are allowed in the discussion board posts.
Post a thoughtful response to at least two (2) other colleagues’ initial postings. Responses to colleagues should be supportive and helpful (examples of an acceptable comment are: “This is interesting – in my practice, we treated or resolved (diagnosis or issue) with (x, y, z meds, theory, management principle) and according to the literature…” and add supportive reference. Avoid comments such as “I agree” or “good comment.”
Objectives

Lab 1: Ecosystems, Organisms, and Trophic Levels
In this lab, you will explore a number of different biomes and ecosystems, searching out the organisms that live in each environment, then using a set of existing field observations to answer questions about that organism, as well as its relationship with (and effect on) the ecosystem it inhabits.
First, click here to access and complete Week 1 Lab 1.
Next, fill out this lab journal document, then click the link at top to submit your completed lab journal.
Discussion
“Humans and Ecology” Note: Online students please respond to one (1) of the following four (4) bulleted options:
The Impact of Chronic Illness
Identify one person from the illness group you chose in Week 1. The person should not be a patient at the facility in which you work. You can use friends, family members, or coworkers. Do not use the person’s name in the paper but only initials. Administer the questionnaire you created in Week 1 to that person. Compile the data and analyze the responses to better illustrate where this person, his or her family, and friends are in relation to accepting the diagnosis in relation to the standard health or illness definitions. The analysis should also include coping skills, treatment, and support aspects of the illness. Identify how this will direct care plan development for the chosen illness group.
Compile a report of your interview with the questions you created, the responses you received, your analysis, and your interpretation of how it will affect planning care for the group in a 4- to 5-page Microsoft Word document.
Support your responses with examples.
