May Not Even be Helping the Homosexuals Conversion therapy is a therapy method that pressures homosexuals to extreme levels of stress and depression, which ultimately leads to suicide and/or mental disorder. Despite large, credible organizations and doctors, like the American Psychiatric Association, The National Association of Social Workers, the Human Rights Campaign, and many more condemn the use of conversion therapy. Those who exercise conversion therapy have no data to support their…

differently. Sunlight is also affected by climate and weather conditions where cloud cover and adverse weather conditions can block the amount of sunlight hitting the earth. The style and size of a solar power circuit, including the energy collection and conversion system, also plays a major role in determining how much sunlight is converted into useful energy (U.S. Energy Info. Adm.). There are two styles of active solar power circuits in use today. One style is a solar thermal power plant,…

Within this document is a project overview, objective/goals of Helios, risks associated with the project and a project timeline. This is in order to ensure that the stakeholders: Kingston Steele, Don Heer, Rachael Cate and Akash Kannegulla and the contributors: Bridget Donohue, Maricela Valenzuela and Al-Khatab Al-Busaidi have the same objectives and understanding regarding this…

Conversion Therapy (reparative therapy) should be banned!

Various forms of sexual orientation change efforts(SOCE) therapy or conversion therapy, including "electric shocks," would be used to treat or cure the disorder. However, in 1973, homosexuality was declassified as a disease by the American Psychiatric Association and removed from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders(Vider). Nonetheless,…

s nuclear power worth the risk? Are the positive aspects of nuclear power worth the possible negative outcomes? To use nuclear power, Uranium atoms must split, which is called fission. The heat produced from fission is what makes the water turn into steam. The steam is what makes the turbines turn and the turbines are used to generate electricity. Do the positive effects of using nuclear power out weight the possibility of building nuclear weapons? I think with government regulations and…

fight for equality, especially considering his stance on conversion therapy for homosexuals. Despite United States Surgeon General David Satcher issuing a report in 2001 stating that there is no valid scientific evidence that sexual orientation can be modified or changed with medical or psychological intervention, Mike Pence has involved himself in supporting efforts that seem to be linked to conversion, or “reparative,” therapy. Fighting conversion therapy is nothing new to the LGBTQ+…

of this project I am starting to gain more knowledge in implementing project based learning. Among the things I learned is that the project is implemented in the beginning of the unit and should dictate the flow of lesson and activities. It provides context or theme to deliver the different concepts essential for the unit. On the other hand, technology is used to reinforce the context in the form of simulation and modeling as the concepts are introduced and applied in the form of spreadsheet,…

Last week, the professor introduced us with some basic conversion problems, from meters to centimeters to Celsius from Fahrenheit. This week, we are discussing about how much energy we get from the food we take and change in temperature. These topics are getting deeper and deeper and if you look at the whole picture…
