...of same-sex couples revealed that partnered gay men are less likely (42 percent) as married heterosexual men to get employer-sponsored dependent coverage, and partnered lesbians have an even slimmer chance (28 percent) of getting dependent coverage compared to married heterosexual women. As a result of these much lower rates of employer-provided coverage, partnered lesbians and gay men are more than twice as likely to be uninsured as married heterosexuals. The exclusion of insurance benefits for gay men and women and the failure of domestic partnership benefits to provide equal access to health coverage results into more health spending push onto those individuals and onto the public (Ponce, 2010). ASSESSMENT According to research lesbian women are 5% less likely to receive mammograms; LGB are diagnosed with cancer 3% more than heterosexuals; twice as many LGBT youth are overweight. LGB youth are 17% more likely to be injured with a weapon in a fight and 9% more likely to require medical help from injuries...

...INTRODUCTION In pursuit of advanced discoveries, mastery in academy and continued education, many scholars have resorted to online education, sometimes referred to as eLearning or digital education. This is nothing but a superlative mode of the long existing distance education, undertaken using technological apparatus such as computers, telephones, etc… Like any other systems of education already in existence, the eLearning has its pros and cons. In the following article, the author intends to highlight the benefits and the challenges of eLearning and later explain how this educational system affects leadership on a global level. BENFITS OF GLOBAL ELEARNING Cost effectiveness – Students do not need to travel to and from class. This cuts on costs There is no need to pay the traditional administrative fees No need to pay accommodation fees or food allowance Flexibility – Students plan when to study, there is no need to travel in a rush to the classroom Choice/Option – whereas students from the traditional classroom may not be allowed to take options, online programs are tailored to suit the students‘ objectives. As in the case of University of Liverpool, a student undertaking a Master’s in Business Management has 8 compulsory modules and 4 elective modules selected to suit his future prospects Asynchronous Collaborative Interaction – Collaboration with each one of the class members and the instructor is done one at his/her own free time...

...curse” Dr. Ute Collier 1. Introduction The above citation accurately, although briefly, reflects general perception of dams. On the one hand, they have undoubtedly played, and still play a significant role in the development of the civilization. On the other hand, their construction and functioning entail incurring immense social costs, often disproportionate to the resulting advantages. Dams have also caused vast irreversible damage in the natural environment. Therefore, there is growing opposition against constructing dams, and even demands to remove the already existing ones. This, in turn, leads to the mobilization of the hydrotechnicians’ circle, seeking possibilities for initiating new investments, which results in a larger and larger gap between the proponents and opponents of hydrotechnical structures on rivers. The objective of this paper is to discuss the social and environmental aspects of the...

According to a government publication called Find Youth Info, only fifty percent of teen mothers have a high school diploma or GED, compared with ninety percent of adolescents who did not give birth; only ten percent had a two or four year college degree, and; teen fathers had a thirty percent lower incidence of graduating from high school than those that are not fathers (“Teen Pregnancy“, 2014, p. 1). Additionally, a sexually active teen increases their risk of contracting a sexually transmitted disease, and the pregnant teen may encounter health risks and complications due to the pregnancy. The children born to teen mothers are also at a disadvantage from the start. They have a higher risk of (“Teen Pregnancy“, p. 1): - Infant mortality. - Lower birth rate....
