.... influence on teaching the students about birth control products and sex education, instead of distributing free condoms. Passing out free condoms at high schools may have a negative effect on the way young adults view sex. In high school, young adult's emotions and feelings are still very immature; therefore, passing out condoms may be promoting teenagers to have sex. Parents think giving free condoms to children sends mixed messages on what to think about sex education or how to have sex. Promoting safe sex and distributing free condoms in high schools are great ways to control the rampant spread of sexually transmitted diseases and high level .....

.... viral infections, even aging have been considered. ALS attacks the motor neurons in your nervous system that control your muscles. Your motor neurons slowly deteriorate, causing your muscles to not receive information from your brain. Your muscles then become useless and begin to deteriorate. Symptoms of ALS include: Tripping and falling Loss of motor control in hands and arms Difficulty speaking and swallowing or difficulty breathing Persistent fatigue Twitching and cramping, sometimes severely As ALS progresses, all voluntary muscles become useless. The patient cannot eat, breathe or communicate with others. Total life support .....

.... should be the same for everyone involved. If anything has been learned from the psychology of perception, it is clear that a person's environment has a great deal to do with their cognitive abilities. Is the light flickering? Is the paint on the walls an unsettling shade? Is the temperature too hot or too cold? Is the chair uncomfortable? Or in the worst case, do they have an illness that day? To test a person's mind, it is necessary to utilize their body in the process. If everyone's body is placed in different conditions during the testing, how is it expected to get standardized results across all the subjects? Because of this assumption that .....

.... that has best stood the test of time over a period of more than seventy years (Many of Freud's other theories have been disputed in recent years). Freud reportedly admired Aristotle's assertion that dreaming is the activity of the mind during sleep (Fine, 1973). It was perhaps the use of the term activity that Freud most appreciated in this brief definition for, as his understanding of the dynamics of dreaming increased, so did the impression of ceaseless mental activity differing in quality from that of ordinary waking life (Fine, 1973). In fact, the quality of mental activity during sleep differed so radically from what we take to be the e .....

.... fatal problem in the hospital, the doctors are told to preform a " No Code" which means that they should let the patient die peacefully with any amount of painkillers or medication requested by the patient(McCuen 3). Doctors that are treating a dying patient should treat them with care. They should make them as comfortable as possible and give them medication to dull their pain. Instructors tell doctors in training to treat dying patients as people " that are alive but just that their death is more imminent than our own"(Moroney 2). Many families could rest easy that their relative is being treated well and are receiving the nece .....

.... to believe that I am the only normal person left. You used to only be able to get an HIV test at your doctor, but now they have home tests that are confidential. You go to the store pick one up prick your finger then mail in the blood sample, in about two or three weeks you call in and enter your special pin number and they give you your results. I think this is cool but there has to be some drawbacks like them getting samples messed up and it getting mixed up in the mail or other stupid things like that, like if you really don't have the disease but you get someone elses reading who does have HIV. Thats about all I know about this horrible .....

.... with sustained attention. Up to 20 electrodes are attached to the child's head. Levels of electrical activity in various parts of the brain are measured and entered into a computer. The computer provides a signal, such as a light or tone. This "feedback" is supposed to teach the child to increase certain kinds of brain-wave activity and decrease other types. Training usually involves 40-80 sessions, each lasting 40 minutes or more. This "treatment" costs $3,000 to $6,000. The studies which suggest impressive results for EEG Biofeedback are seriously flawed. Sample sizes were small and appropriate control groups were not used to determine if .....

.... treatment. But if the brain alteration goes untreated, a majority of the people will attempt suicide, and 17% will succeed. Depression can also occur during childhood and adolescence. Some causes for depression include a family histoy of verbal, physical, or sexual abuse. The separation or loss of a loved one, a family history of depression, incarceration, pregnancy, lower social statuses, homosexuality, and mental retardation could also cause a child or young adult to become depressed. Doctors say that the depression symptoms for kids are the same as in adults, except that children suffer more from physical symptoms such as hallu .....

.... and Volgelstein found that the gene was responsible for killing tumors. This is when cancer research took a turn and began to focus on the “molecule of the year�, as proclaimed by Science magazine. Recently, Nikola Pavelitch of New York's Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center was able to get a photo of the gene, and she notices that when the disease (cancer) is forming, rogue molecules are present that keep it from performing its good deeds. There have since been 5,200 studies on p53 and researchers are sure it will be a major discovery. The p53's function is as the director to control damage within the cell. When it is healthy, normal ce .....

.... but in one case the monkeys at a holding facility broke out and had to be killed. In the pursuit of a cure and an origin, there have beenseveral teams of scientists whose top priority is to find theviruses origin(5). The teams have trekked through the rainforests of Africa to collecting different species of animals,bugs, and plant life. Bugs are also collected from the hospitals and from the surrounding huts of the villages. So far 36,000specimens have been collected. Once they have been gathered, the specimens are put into liquid nitrogen and flown back to theUnited States, where they are studied at the Centers for DiseaseControl i .....
