Interaction: Last week, my husband was taking a mid-term for one of his classes and our four children were running around the house playing a game of hide and go seek. Normally, when he sits down to work on his school work, he puts on his headphones and listens to music. This helps him concentrate and stay focused in our…

My partner’s revised goal for the individual health promotion plan project was to eat at least two Paleo-based meals everyday for a month. One of the interventions used to approach this goal was stimulus control. When following such a rigid diet, there will be a lot of environmental triggers present. The first environmental trigger that was observed was her living situation. Having roommates that are not following a Paleo-based diet meant that there was a substantial amount of food that…

Some do not know the difference between story-truth and happening truth. In Tim O’Brien’s book about the Vietnam War he tells many stories. He starts off by explaining what each man carried, going into the war itself where people are killing other people and soldiers are dying, then talking about a man O’Brien killed, ending with what types of emotion these soldiers brought home with them. Some feel grief, torn, lost, and others simply feel okay. War gives each man a different feeling towards…

As a proud democratic country it is hard for Americans to look at another regime type and think of it as having positive qualities. This is especially true regarding an authoritarian regime. Easily associated with Russia and thus the Cold War, seeing any good come from our once enemies regime is difficult. However just because proud Americans cannot see something does not mean it does not exist; there are positive qualities to an authoritarian regime type, especially when limited to looking at…

visible LEDs. In majority of these applications, potential use of organic polymers is in the form of anti-reflective coatings, optical adhesives, substrates, and micro lenses. The critical property necessary for such applications is the high refractive index (RI) of the material. However, typical carbon based polymers have low RI values which limits the use of these polymers in the aforementioned applications. Thus, organic polymers with higher RI values, typically greater than 1.8, have…
