...Perfect Paper The ability to help others in need is something I’ve always dreamed of doing. The opportunity to do so is right in front of me. Becoming a physician's assistant is the occupation I’d love to have as an adult because of the flexibility within the profession, the time it takes to do, and also to be able to help America’s growing healthcare crisis. Physician’s assistants have so much career flexibility. They can change their clinical specialties over the course of their work life. So this means if they are working in radiology and decide they want to work with a physician who specializes in dermatology or pediatrics they can. I although, can stick to one thing, but I think having the option is vital to my success. Being able to...

...Relations December 16, 2013 Abstract This paper will focus on the labor relations aspect of Super Retailer Walmart. Their employees have renounced Walmart and the unfair labor relations. Walmart practices and approach to insurance, wage and shift hours have all ways haunted the retail giant. Many companies condemned Walmart for being too large and not focusing on the employees but their primary goal is just to capitalize on the blood sweat and tears of their employees. I will formulate a comprehensive strategy to Walmart that can help at least one imperative area that troubles the super retailer which is health care. 1. Discuss the company’s stance toward labor and any specific labor-related issues it may be experiencing. (Ungar, 2012)After making a big deal of publicly supporting the Affordable Care Act, Walmart—the nation’s largest private sector employer—is joining the ranks of companies seeking to avoid their obligation to provide employees with health insurance as required by Obama care. Walmart been criticized for their horrible wages to the health coverage of their employees. The announcement was long overdue and the time for change is now. As Walmart, dominate the retail industry by offering a vast selection of products to consumers from shampoo, to prescriptions, a routine visit to the optometrist, eating at McDonalds to selecting office furniture. Walmart have mastered a way to combine almost all a consumer’s need into a one stop. However, in this company...

...purchase alcohol, deposit checks, or be eligible for government benefits. An American University survey of voters in Maryland, Indiana, and Mississippi found that less than 0.5 percent of respondents had no form of photo identification (Berardelli). While most eligible citizens have a photo ID, the small percentage without one still have the right to vote. One of the main concerns about obtaining a photo ID are the cost and the location. In the past, in order to obtain a photo ID from the Department of Motor Vehicles office, one must show a birth certificate. Most people that do not have a photo ID, also lack a birth certificate. In order to obtain a birth certificate one must show a photo ID. This creates a circle which is extremely hard to be broken in ordinary circumstances. Now state officials have offered to issue free photo ID cards that require only oral verification of a social security number (Dean). Representative for Alabama, Kerry Rich, says, “ The new free ID would be easy to implement” (qtd. in Lockette). This is due to the contract with the Department of Public Safety which would allow the free ID to be available for pickup at any local DMV office. This would solve the problem of having to purchase a non-driver ID from the DMV, saving the voter about $23 (Lockette). The problem concerning how to get to the DMV is also solved with the contract with the DMV. The DMV officials have offered to give free rides to obtain the ID (Dean). This would allow for rural citizens...

SACKSTEDER LACLAIR A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Education in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2010 Copyright Elizabeth E. Sacksteder LaClair 2010 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Utilizing the current literature base on rural community colleges, transfer student adjustment, academic advising and articulation issues, the purpose of this research study was to ascertain the adjustment issues and experiences of rural community college students who have the intent to transfer to a four-year baccalaureate degree granting institution. The perceptions these rural community college students have regarding the transfer process are the focus of the study. Students from ten rural community colleges, who participated in the Alabama College Transfer Advising Corps, a project of The University of Alabama and funded by the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation were used in the study. The survey instrument used in this study is a variation of Laanan Transfer Student Questionnaire (L-TSQ). Survey questions were reframed such that those regarding university experiences and the students’ potential transfer to a four-year college/university were treated as reflections on the meditational transition, or transition that has not...

...Consumer Behavior Consumer Behavior: Contrast Jet Blue vs. Southwest Airlines Trident University MKT501 CS1 Identify key external factors that affect the passenger airline industry and explain how that impact occurs There are several external factors that affect the passenger airline industry. Some of the factors that affect the industry are economic crisis, instability in aviation fuel price, and environmental factors. I will elaborate more in detail in the following paragraphs on these factors. The first area I want to talk about is our countries current Economic Crisis, and in my opinion drives all the other factors that affect airline industry’s the most. The current economic situation is not good and therefore will have an effect on what a customer will or will not do. Air travel is very expensive as it is, in my opinion, so a sluggish economy will add more pressure on an individual or family thinking of flying anywhere. The second area that affects the airline industry is the cost of aviation fuel. If fuel prices are high, the airline will have to charge more for tickets. As I mentioned earlier, higher ticket prices is not what the public wants in our current economy. The airline industry is a business and in order to make money and continue to provide the service, the company has a breakeven price, approximately 66% of their operating cost (Airline Economics Break Even Load Factors Paragraph). If the company doesn’t...

Do Not Cite or Quote Without Permission E-MARRIAGE: BREAKING THE MARRIAGE MONOPOLY Adam Candeub and Mae Kuykendall ∗ ABSTRACT: This Article advocates updating the law governing marriage formation to recognize the shift in social interactions from real to virtual life. We argue that couples can use internet communications not only to marry when separated by great distance but also to choose which state’s laws will authorize their marriage. In particular, same sex couples could marry under the laws of a state that permit such unions, regardless of where they exchange vows. States inadvertently have created geographic monopolies, requiring each marriage receiving the benefits of their licensing laws to be performed within their borders. This Article’s model builds upon established precedents, such as proxy marriage and choice of law for multijurisdictional and internet contracts. Using the power of internet communications, our proposal allows states to compete over marriage’s procedures and substance. Depending on a couple’s preferences for “e-ritual” and a state’s desired level of regulatory control, couples could consume the trappings of a traditional ceremony...

I have cited all sources from which I used data, ideas, or words, either quoted directly or paraphrased. I also certify that this paper was prepared by me specifically for this course. Cita Renee Reid________________________24 January 2015 Signature Date Introduction For nearly four decades, Boeing Corporation and Airbus Group have battled for supreme dominancy of the large civil aircraft (LCA) market. In years past, U.S. held Boeing had dominated the commercial aircraft industry; however, between YY and 2013, European-owned Airbus, had slightly edged Boeing out as the top supplier. In 2014, the precarious balance was tipped once again, as Boeing delivered more aircraft to its customers; thereby, reestablishing itself as the number one manufacturer. This paper will explore the history of the companies, how they are alike and different (particularly their production process), how they approach the aircraft marketplace, where their rivalry will likely head and the most probable outcome of their ongoing competition. It will also give a brief history and overview of the World Trade Organization (WTO) 2012 ruling over the receipt of governmental subsidies...
