and viewing his series Running the Numbers 1 & 2 on his website:

THIS IS A CREATIVE THINKING ASSIGNMENT:

Write 5-10 sentences explaining  a social or political statistic or issue that you think would be good inspiration for one of his works of art.  Explain what and how he could visually represent this statistic and bring awareness to the cause.  Also, explain why you chose this topic.  What does it mean to you? 

DO NOT SELECT A TOPIC HE HAS ALREADY COVERED.  If you do, this will result in a zero grade.

This may be attached as word.  docx, word.doc,  pdf, or you can type the answers in the textbox.

In the CSU Online Library, go to the ABI/Inform Collection database, and perform a publication search for “professional safety.” This should take you to a page where you can perform a search from within the publication itself. Perform an additional search within the publication using “return on investment” as a search term. Click here for instructions on how to do this. 

Select an article that deals with considering return on investment when deciding upon the implementation of hazard controls. 

Write a review of the article that includes the following items:

• a brief introduction to the article, 
• a summary and analysis of the key points in the      article, 
• a discussion related to the concept of return on      investment considerations for advocating the implementation of appropriate      controls, and 
• a summary of the article’s conclusions and your own      opinions. 

The assignment must be in APA format and at least two pages in length, not including title and reference pages. 

Problem Set Five

1.  Two 3 kg physical science textbooks on a book shelf are separated by 0.25 m.  What is the force of gravitational attraction between the books?

2.  What is the force of gravity between two 1000 kg cars separated by a distance of 20 m on a highway?

3.   Using the force, calculated in # 2 above, and the weight of the car, calculate:    

Force (from #2) divided by the weight of car  

4.  How would the force of gravity between two masses be affected if the separation distance between them is doubled?

5.  How would the force of gravity between two masses be affected if the separation distance between them is decreased by one-half?

6.  The separation distance between two 2.0 kg masses is decreased by two-thirds.  How is the gravitational force between them affected?

7.  A man has a mass of 150 kg.  What does he weigh on earth expressed  in N?

8.  If the gravitation constant on the moon, gm is one-sixth that on the earth, how much does the man in # 7 weigh on the moon?

9.  An astronaut on the moon places a package on a scale and finds it weight to be 15 N.  What would the package weigh on earth?

10.  What is the package’s mass on the moon?

Memory loss is frightening. The purpose of this assignment is to make you think of memory loss realistically. Complete the steps listed below:

• Watch the video, Living Without a Memory (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., which provides an overview of memory and discusses actual cases of memory loss.
• Select a movie that has featured a character with memory loss. Describe the main features of the impairment exhibited by the movie character.

Engage your critical thinking skills. How accurately is memory loss featured in the selected movie? Specifically, does the memory loss in the movie resemble actual cases? Is appropriate terminology used? Is the prognosis realistic?

• Note that statements regarding the accuracy or inaccuracy of the memory loss illustrated in the movie are to be supported by evidence collected by cognitive psychologists and neuroscientists (i.e., experts). Thus, review the literature on memory loss and use at least two peer-reviewed articles that can answer the questions above. Although your opinion is valuable and always welcome, it needs to be supported by scientific evidence.      
• Express your thoughts about how the movie could have more realistically depicted memory loss, its cause(s), time-course, and prognosis.
• Describe the memory loss featured in the selected movie as well as discussing its accuracy Keep in mind that accuracy refers to the description of symptoms, potential cause(s), prognosis and actual time-course.

Your paper must begin with an introduction to the selected topic in which you define all concepts that will be discussed in the paper. You must also include a conclusion expressing your thoughts about how the movie could have more realistically depicted memory loss, its causes, time-course, and prognosis.

The Understanding Memory Loss Paper:

• Must be four to five double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..
• Must include a separate title page with the following:
  • Title of paper
  • Student’s name
  • Course name and number
  • Instructor’s name
  • Date submitted
• Must use at least two peer-reviewed source in addition to the course text.
  • The Scholarly, Peer Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources table offers additional guidance on appropriate source types. If you have questions about whether a specific source is appropriate for this assignment, please contact your instructor. Your instructor has the final say about the appropriateness of a specific source for a particular assignment.
• Must document all sources in APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
• Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

You will be creating a case report in stages over four course topics. Use an example from your own personal practice, experience, or own personal/family; however, simulated cases are not acceptable for practice hours and therefore not acceptable for this assignment. Examples might include a patient with Duchesne’s muscular dystrophy. Huntington’s disease, Down’s syndrome, sickle cell anemia, BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 mutations, or other genetic disorder that you and/or the organization in which you practice may specialize in treating.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

• This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
• Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. The APA Style Guide is located in the Student Success Center.
• This assignment requires that at least two additional scholarly research sources related to this topic, and at least one in-text citation from each source be included.

Include the following:

• Guidelines and reasons behind the FDA regulations for introducing new pharmaceutical agents (policy).
• The role that money and grants play in scientific advances; the economics of health care (capitalism).
• The role and involvement family plays into the health care decision.

Directions:

For this assignment (Part 1 of the Case Report), write a 1,000-1,250 word paper incorporating genetics information learned from assigned readings in Topics 1 and 2. Include the following:

1. Describe the disease, its prevalence, and its incidence.
2. Discuss the laboratory testing that is possible.
