Even though the children play in the street it cause a safety risk to drivers that don’t speed or drive wreck less do to the children running in and out of the streets without looking for cars. The children are our future and they need to be protected. When a person is looking to buy a future home they want to see a nice neighborhood that looks respectable and not as if it’s a bad neighborhood. The appearance of a home in my belief can say a lot about the people who live there. Someone who takes care of their home for example pressure washing, not trash in yard, paint nicely applied. Also there are some resident that don’t have the money but the residents should do as much as they can. To give an example of this a resident in my neighborhood has fixed the garage door which is tilted half way closed and it’s not very appealing. The appearance of a residents lawn as well as home its self make a community. A yard or lawn care should at the minimum have the grass mowed. The plants should be not over grown or deceased. Living in Florida the grass isn’t always...

...The poor people usually depends of this places for basic things like food or sleep,without that help some of them don`t survive winter. Most of these institutions exist thanks to donations made it by average people and not government assistance. Every day there is more people living on the streets and the help is simply not enough, even when these kind of institutions exist. The people which suffer of poverty even when we see them like a kind of dog in the street, they are human and they want a decent life like normal people. Is normal to say that those poor people are living on the streets by their own choice, but like I said before, that is ignorance. That people suffer a lot of things, even things that we never going to feel, for example the hungry . The sad of these situations is that most of these people is...

...John Smith Dr. Madaro University Physics I Spring 2014 Biomedical Engineering and the Future of Modern Medicine I have always been interested in math and science, but my interest developed into a fascination this year in physics class. I enjoyed being able to apply all of the laws and theories that we learned in class to real-world situations. I liked being able to figure out the distance an object traveled just by knowing the acceleration and speed, finding the vertical and horizontal components of a force, and solving for the coefficient of friction of a surface. I loved that every concept seemed to build on the one before it, and how they all helped me understand the world in a way I never had before. Whenever I think about my future, what I want to study, and how I want to make a living, I always think of engineering- a career that would allow me to develop this fascination with the way the world works and to apply my knowledge to a project that could help improve peoples' lives. I want to go into this field to develop technology that could help cure disease or improve the quality of life of those with serious medical conditions. The concepts of Physics play a crucial part in the everyday work of Biomedical Engineers, specifically in the invention of prosthetic limbs, artificial organs, and improved hearing aids. "The first artificial limbs were stiff and did not have joints that bent like real arms, hands, or legs" (Woods 40). The invention of the artificial limbs...

...Question 4: If you were member of ABD's management team, what countries would you recommend targeting first? As a manager, you would need to justify your recommendation. A good approach is to investigate key characteristics of specific countries via globalEDGE or similar Web sites. Answer: First of all, to produce advanced biomedical devices lucratively requires high technology, biomedical engineering services at enough level, to be independent about work in process and raw materials, sufficient control-reporting, coordination and r&d activities very well. Advanced medical devices are produced by finite number companies. Accordingly products of these production is difficult and costly. Countries which have not these features must obtain the products via import. At first, we should assign the countries which have not capacity and technology to produce these products. We should focus on underdeveloped or the developing countries due to the features such as low levels of productivity, technology, capacity, insufficient information education and materials about sector. ABD's management team can export advenced biomedical devices to Azerbajian, Nakhichevan, Iraq, Algeria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia etc. And it may use Turkey as the place of manufacturing because of Turkey is in the region which is near these countries and has many advantages about technology, sufficient capacity as regards these countries. ABD can use the opportunity of location of Turkey for manufacturing, in this way it...

...My name is Dominique McLeod and I reside in Atlanta, Georgia. I am one of four children, the child of two loving parents, God-fearing, a genuine person, and most importantly striving to be the leader I am destined to be. Attending college has never been just an option; it was a must. That is why I am making every effort to make that come true. “Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.” This quote by American Scholar Warren Bennis, plainly states the goal of a true leader. A true leader has a goal, a vision as Bennis put it. The task set before that leader is to make the vision come true (a reality) by any means necessary. There are certain qualities needed to make sure the vision is successfully turned into a reality. Hard work, dedication, and perseverance are the three main qualities among many that act as a catalyst to the leader’s vision. When these qualities are put into action, the impossible becomes the possible and as Warren Bennis put it, the vision becomes a reality. One obstacle, that in my life I classified as the impossible, was attending the first charter school of Gwinnett County, The Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, & Technology. Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology (GSMST) is a charter school that was established in 2007. It focuses on the higher end of the academic spectrum in providing exceptional students with challenging curriculum and extensive leadership responsibilities in order to prepare the students...

...Unit 1 Research Paper 1 Injectable Tissue Engineering Brand Zae GS1140 Injectable Tissue Engineering Introduction Every year more than700,000 Americans undergo a form of joint replacement surgery. The procedure-in which a knee or a hip is replaced with an artificial implant-is highly invasive, and many patients delay said surgery for as long as they can. A doctor by the name of Jennifer Elisseeff , a biomedical engineer at Johns Hopkins University, hopes to change that with a simple and quick procedure that does away with surgery entirely. Dr. Elisseeff and her colleagues have developed a way to inject joints with specially designed mixtures of polymers, cells, and growth stimulators that solidify and form healthy tissue. This form of technology can eliminate the need for many expensive and dangerous surgeries. Surgeries involving muscle development, the cardio vascular system, and even limb repair after a traumatic incident. This form of technology can improve our health care system dramatically and open new windows of opportunity for new forms of medicine. Even the possibility for new cures for diseases that we currently fight every day such as cancer and possibly even HIV, eliminating the need for long and expensive treatments. As well as repairing worn or damaged tissue, this form of engineering can also be used in the future for growing new organs or limbs to replace old damaged or missing ones. If a patient is in need of a new heart...

...controversial to the public. Many people believe this kind of research is unnatural, and should be stopped before it can start. While others are very open to the idea, believing it can help in many aspects in human development and daily life. Technology has advanced quickly, from bioengineered skin to genomics, which is the custom building of DNA or RNA strands. Humans need to be able to understand the pros and cons of technology taking over our lives as well as our bodies. There are both benefits and complications with bioengineering and singularity, and both are taken with precise consideration by scientists. Benefits of biomedical engineering and singularity With medical engineering people are afraid of inserting objects into their bodies but what they don’t realize is the advantages that could happen. There are multiple possible benefits of biomedical engineering and singularities. The main singularity is medical benefits. In Progress Accelerates Exponentially, Kurzweil...

...Tissue engineering is a branch of biomedical engineering that focuses on isolating and amplifying the natural ability of the human body to heal injuries. The paradigm of tissue engineering is composed of three major components: a tissue scaffold; biological factors; and cells. Among these three components, the source of the cells used in the medical device is the largest source of controversy. Not only can the origin of the cells affect the funding of an engineering project, but it can even lead to the overall rejection of the project by society if they feel that the source is morally objectionable. This essay will explore two common sources of pluripotent cells used in tissue engineering, the laws that are set in place in accordance with...
