...A septoplasty is the surgery to correct or straighten a deviated septum. The turbinate reduction part of the procedure is to reduce the overall size of the turbinates, allowing for airflow, which results in relief of nasal obstruction and congestion. I included rhinoplasty in with the other two procedures because most of the time if a patient has a septoplasty done, they will most likely have a rhinoplasty performed as well. A rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure to reshape the nose. The reason most patients have both operations performed is because once their deviated septum is corrected, the outside of their nose is still most likely crooked. A rhinoplasty would be correcting the outside of the nose to make it straight as well as the inside of the nose which the septoplasty corrected. Patients have these procedures done on them for multiple reasons. One would be to change or improve their appearance due to a birth deformity, injury, or self pleasure. Another would be to improve their...

...Opinion paper draft People Should Not Keep Pets More and more people keep pets in recent years. From a broader perspective, people should not keep pets. This paper will clarify four reasons why people should not keep pets. The issue of whether should keep pets has been extensively debated and remains relentless. According to research, there are 29.8 percents of people who keep pets in China, nearly 50 percents of people keep pets in Europe, and almost 60 percents of people keep pets in the United States (Soltanizadeh 83-94). The topic of keeping pets becomes a international topic. With the increase of number of animals kept at home, more and more people stated that people should not keep pets (Soltanizadeh 83-94). In this paper, I will present arguments in support of the topic that people should not keep pets. There are three reasons. Keeping pets not only wastes resources, but also increase the risk of health of the animals and people. And it is a violation of animal rights. My counter argument is people should keep pets because it adds to the quality of life of both the owner and the animal. There are mainly three reasons why people should not keep pets. Firstly, keeping of pets results in a huge drain on resources that could be put to better use. (Rebekah 525-537). For examples, pets are costly to keep in time, money and energy. As well as the cost to owners in food, vet’s bills and the time spent cleaning and exercising. Secondly, keeping pets is...

...Salvage Chic – Business Plan Module 10a – Learning Task 2 Justine Lalonde, Rose Fisher & Tram Phan Executive Summary Salvage Chic a unique jewelry business that was established by three International Food Business students at Nova Scotia Agricultural College (NSAC). Salvage Chic operates on a theory of up cycling. This means that materials used in the production of their products are secondhand or recycled item such as buttons are ribbons. Items that are more or less viewed as “junk” are given a new purpose as a piece of trendy jewelry. All owners will sell and produce Salvage Chic’s products and each owner is tasked with an additional responsibility (Justine: Logistics, Rose: Promotion & Tram: Finance). Salvage Chic will operate during late November in the Cox building on the NSAC Campus. Assuming that half of the student body enters this building during the day, the expected market size is 532 students. After analyzing the market, accompanying two target markets, complementing current trends in the jewelry sector are key factors that contribute to Salvage Chic’s anticipated success. Salvage Chic is unaware of any businesses that sell the same product as them and would be considered direct competition. However, there are plenty of jewelry store located in Truro; which is indirect competition for Salvage Chic. Promotional activities planned for marketing Salvage Chic’s products include using social media, word of mouth and posting flyers around NSAC and Truro...

...Eboni Goodrich Research Paper 1 Project 3; (400 hours) February 17th, 2014 Tennessee Academy of Cosmetology Michele Byers didn't have any skin problems. She just wanted to do something nice for herself as she approached her 50th birthday. Byers went to an at-home esthetician for microdermabrasion, a nonsurgical procedure that polishes away dead skin. After a session, bumps started to appear on Byers' face. Her cheeks were covered in indentations. "It looked like a railroad track on my forehead and nose," says Byers of Castro Valley, Calif. "Here I was trying to do something nice for myself and I ended up looking worse than I ever had in my life." Contrary to popular belief, darker skin is not tougher; in fact, while extra melanin does have its benefits - sun protection and slowed signs of aging - it makes the skin more sensitive and vulnerable to injury. The side effects are common for people with darker skin. Most skin care is only marketed to white people (lacking tone), not even Asians, Hispanics and darker-skinned Europeans. Education of the skin is geared to white skin, and it's still not considered to be a prestigious career here in the United States as with beauty advisers in Europe. If the skin is darker it is prone to scarring and hyper-pigmentation, so we have to be more careful with skin of color. Latin, Asian, Indian, Mediterranean or African-American descents skin requires special skin care. Even acne or laser hair removal should be handled differently on...

...biologically? Read their viewpoints here. EnlargePhoto credit: © andipantz/iStockphoto AN ANTAGONIST'S PERSPECTIVE by C. Loring Brace I am going to start this essay with what may seem to many as an outrageous assertion: There is no such thing as a biological entity that warrants the term "race." The immediate reaction of most literate people is that this is obviously nonsense. The physician will retort, "What do you mean 'there is no such thing as race'? I see it in my practice everyday!" Jane Doe and John Roe will be equally incredulous. Note carefully, however, that my opening declaration did not claim that "there is no such thing as race." What I said is that there is no "biological entity that warrants the term 'race'." "You're splitting hairs," the reader may retort. "Stop playing verbal games and tell us what you really mean!" Loring Brace challenges the notion that his position on race is a manifestation of "political correctness."EnlargePhoto credit: © Jacob Wackerhausen/iStockphoto A bit of context And so I shall, but there is another charge that has been thrown my way, which I need to dispel before explaining the basis for my statement.

...ARTICLE REVIEW Annual AAFPRS Survey Finds ‘Selfie’ Trend Increases Demand for Facial Plastic Surgery Urbana University BSG 506: Marketing May 18, 2014 ARTICLE REVIEW In this paper, I summarize the article and offer comments about selected aspects, identify some information in the article, and suggest areas where additional research findings would assist in the understanding the current state of medical care in regard to the issues raised. Article Summary In March 2014, the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) released an article where they inform the reader about the relationship between the ‘selfie’ trend and the increase demand for facial plastic surgery. Methodology Behind The Study For this study the AAFPRS studied a “select group of the organization’s 2,700 members to uncover the latest trends in facial plastic surgery.” Findings “The study revealed that one in three facial plastic surgeons surveyes saw an increase in requests for procedures due to patients being more self aware of looks in social media.” The members that completed the survey stated that they noted an increase of 10% during 2013 when compared to 2012 of patients getting rhinoplasty; a 7% increase in hair transplant and a 6% increase in eyelid surgery. It was also reported by the surgeons that they saw an increase in patients under the age of 30 getting procedures done. Critical Reflections It is not a...

...Products Liability Research Paper: Brazilian Blowout By Tekendrea Fayne LEG500011VA016-1126-001: Law, Ethics & Corp. Governance Francis Hatstat Strayer University September 9, 2012 Premises Brazilian Blowout Professional Treatments are use of innovative and breakthrough bonding technologies, these treatments actually improve the health and condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle. These treatments aim to smooth out unruly curls and waves and to reduce frizz. However, the treatments do not guarantee completely straight hair. If the Brazilian Blowout is performed correctly, about 50 to 80 percent of the curl can be reduced depending on the original hair texture. Treatments last around 10–12 weeks and repeating the treatment every few months will allow for treatment of new growth. Depending on the treatment used downtime, after it is performed ranges from no-wait to a 72 hour period in which the recipient cannot wash or wet the hair, exercise, tuck the hair behind the ears, or pin it up with any hair clip, pony tail holder or headband, as doing so may compromise the result of the treatment. The treatment on average cost about $150–$600 depending on the hair length. FDA states that Brazilian Blowouts are hazardous to the health of the women who use them and hairdressers who apply them. The concern is over the “alleged” presence of formaldehyde in the hair smoothing products...

...during the 1970’s. “Inscribed skin highlights an issue that has been central to anthropology since its inception: the question of boundaries between the individual and society, between societies, and between representations and experiences” (Schildkrout, 2004). Through anthropological research, we have learned that many cultures worldwide use forms of body art and ornamentation such as scarification, tattooing (permanent and nonpermanent), and piercings for a variety of reasons, ranging from ceremonial religious rituals to tribal identification purposes. The process of body art and ornamentation signifies a figurative death and rebirth that typically involves a painful experience as a means to encourage an individual’s self-discovery, as well as establishing his/her place in society. For the purpose of this paper, I will explore the various aspects of body art and ornamentation across three specific cultures- the Yoruba’s of West Africa, the Samoan’s of the Pacific Islands, and the Hindu’s of India. Throughout the history of African culture, anthropologists have noted a wide variety of body markings among African peoples, with scarification being the most permanent form. Through intense study and research of African peoples, anthropologists have learned that many in the African culture use these types of body markings as identifiers among tribes, as well as a source of integration for outsiders into a specific community. For example, among the Yoruba tribes of West Africa, men, women...

SUMMARY…………………………………………………………………………..11 13. REFERENCES………………………………………………………………………..12 ABSTRACT This paper previewed my research of biometrics from the early 500 BCs to the 21st century. Upon understanding some of the biometrics differences and earlier methods used, I think the world is definitely is a better place to live in, as well as a much safer world to be in. One example of how this was used to make the world a better place was where biometrics were used at the NFL Super Bowl game in Tampa, Florida. There are many different types and ways of using biometrics to prevent entry into certain places or even to catch criminals from further causing damage in society. Biometrics is the overall study of measurable characteristics, specifically in computer security biometrics refers to the different authentication techniques that rely on measurable physical characteristics that can be automatically checked. The overall practice of distinguishing humans based on intrinsic physical or behavior traits goes back thousands of years. The purpose of this term paper is to review and analyze several different methods of biometrics, including the evolution and history of biometrics, the several different types of biometrics that currently exist and how each type is...

...I pick up the old crisp photograph lying on my desk. This 74 year old piece of paper was well taken care of. The photo accommodates the aroma that all antiques have . I say that it's the smell of old. An unknown face smiles back at me from the photo. He wears a black sheepskin jacket with a big white wool collar, and underneath he wears a nicely pressed summer tan uniform with small golden painted sterling silver wings pinned to the collars. He wears his cap tilted to the side to show his smoothly styled hair. A young soldier barely old enough to drink. A face yet to see war, but soon to enter in the midst a world engulfed in hell. This man in the photo was my great uncle. And in my hands, printed on that small piece, I hold a tragic story. My grandma told me that he had been shot down in the war, and his body was never returned home. No one knew exactly what he did during the war other than that he was shot down. I felt determined to find out what he did like I had for many other relatives. All I had to go on was a name, Lt Glen R Wrobel. After extensive research I learned the full story. The 22 year old who grew up in Stoddard, Wisconsin and who left 5 siblings and his home to go to Germany and serve as a bombardier on a B-24J Liberator with the 492nd Bomb Squadron....

...Two Patients Two Cancers One Moment of Truth By: Andrea Patterson 2/4/2013 Ms. Doris M.O.B. There are so many types of cancers. The focus in this research paper is to specify two different kinds. Where in which I will describe what type they are, where it’s located, signs to look for, treatments and reactions to those types of treatments. I will also be interviewing two cancer survivors, both of which had different cancers. Dianner Patterson, who was diagnosed with Thyroid Papillary Carcinoma and Cheryl Washington, who was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Nottingham Grade 3. Dianner Lafontaine Patterson was diagnosed with Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma with follicular cells on January 31st, 2003. Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma is the most common cancer of the thyroid. It primarily affects more women than men. Symptoms include a nodule or bump on the thyroid gland that is clearly visible, swollen lymph nodes, hoarse voice, and a sore throat. If these nodes or symptoms last more than two weeks consult a doctor. Doctors can diagnose you using extensive research. The type of doctor that specializes in this disease is called an Otolaryngologist or an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor. Diagnosis can be determined by a biopsy with a fine needle, extensive blood work, or an ultrasound or sonogram of the throat. Three types of treatment include: medication, surgery, and radiation iodine. The survival rate is excellent after treatment. Dianner’s journey began when...
