Abstract
The paper discusses how career counseling takes on different faces for different clients. The paper relates that some clients may only require minor assistance in identifying employer needs and how their skills fit those needs, while others will require direct placement interventions and job coaching. The paper asserts that the counselor must have awareness of the degree of assistance that the client requires, in order to avoid having a detrimental effect on the client's job search process. This paper looks at the process of bringing the vocational rehabilitation client to successful job placement closure.

Abstract
This paper describes an experiment designed to determine the fate of Planaria that had been cut in half, while immersed in varying concentrations of MgCl, as Magnesium has been shown to relax smooth muscles, inhibiting wound closure. The experiment had fatal results for the Planaria that were in the two highest concentrations of MgCl. It should also be noted that the experiment had to be halted after just five days, due to another student mishandling and spilling the Planaria. The data gathered leading up to the halt of the experiment showed that Planaria which are in the highest concentrations (provided that the concentration is not high enough to be fatal) of MgCl will have the slowest rate of regeneration and wound closure.

From the Paper
"The class of Turbellaria contains the phylum Platyhelminthes, and the family Planariidae to which Planaria belong to. Planaria are free-living flat worms that can be found in marine, aquatic, and terrestrial environments. The planarian has very simple organ systems. It consists of a small brain, perceptual organs and digestive system that comprises of a mouth, pharynx, and an intestine (Pitt-Bradford, 2002). However, it is a planarian's morphogenesis that can be mysterious and is of interest. Planaria have highly robust regeneration systems with the ability to re-grow lost body parts (Brooks and Rodney, 1999). When part of its body is excised, each piece of the part has the ability to regenerate itself (Reddien and Alvarado, 2004). During regeneration, muscle contractions in the Planaria close the wound, followed by the spreading of epithelial cells. Regeneration in planarians depends on a population of adult stem cells called neoblasts that have the potential to turn into any type of planarian cell (Reddien et al, 2005). By studying this process, one can expand their scientific knowledge and perhaps develop ways of helping out other people and animals that have lost their limbs by finding a way of having their body regenerate the missing appendage back."

Abstract
This paper examines how Christopher Nolan's motion picture, "Memento", is structurally in violation of the supposed commandments of film-making. At the beginning, the reader is introduced to "Teddy" and "Lenny," the latter of whom has no short-term memory and lives in a quest to avenge his murdered wife. In particular, it looks at how the use of memory itself really functions more as an extended joke upon the viewer. It discusses how the film is a skillful deposal of the techniques of film-making rather than a truly satisfying narrative of either conflict or closure because it lacks psychological resonance of any kind as a story.

From the Paper
"The real drama or contest thus is not whom of these faceless and nameless harlots are the mother of the nameless infant but the one woman's ability to redeem herself. Thus, in this sense "Memento" is unsatisfying in a narrative form. The convoluted nature of how the narrative unfolds suggests that the individuals who "get" what happens at the end are satisfied through intellectual understanding of the questions posed by the clever structure of the movie. But on a deeper and more emotive sense, the movie eschews any connection with the central protagonist. The man's purported feelings for his dead wife are false Lenny really killed her."

Abstract
The author discusses the death of Edna, the protagonist in the novel "The Awakening." It is suggested that, while one may initially believe that her death was empty and pointless, with greater analysis, her suicide was a victory because she had finally discovered who she was as a woman, an artist, and a person in the nineteenth century.

From the Paper
"In Kate Chopin's novel, The Awakening, Edna Pontellier begins a journey of self-discovery while staying at Grand Isle. Her life begins to seem unsatisfactory to her likings, although to others, she leads a highly respectable life, being married to a Creole businessman, living in an elegant home in New Orleans, having two lovely children, and having many friends who are welcomed at her Tuesday afternoon receptions. To Edna, however, her life was a struggle, a result of the self-realization of her respectable lifestyle and all the short-comings it brought to her. Her death could have seemed a sudden, unfortunate ending to her charming life, if only looked at from an outward appearance

Abstract
Discusses the problem of the elimination of many hospitals, including short-term acute care hospitals, and how the closures are due to multiple factors, such as financial problems, low occupancy rates, reorganizations, mergers, and bankruptcies.

From the Paper
"As far back as 1981, Goldsmith stated that there would be an ongoing decline in the number of successful hospitals as the 20th century progressed. Goldsmith predicted that hundreds of hospitals (both rural and metropolitan) would ..."

Abstract
Using John Picker's essay, "Shylock and the Struggle for Closure" as its main point, this paper discusses the way Shylock is portrayed and characterized in Shakespeare's 'The Merchant of Venice'.

From the Paper
"Perhaps no other character in Shakespeare's plays has received as much debate over the centuries than has Shylock the Jewish money-lender in 'The Merchant of Venice'. Shakespeare himself has often been accused of being anti-Semitic because of Shylock's portrayal as someone demanding that pound of flesh. The fact of the matter is however that if one accurately depicts the period in which this play was set Jews had little opportunity for professions in that tightly Catholic controlled area of the world other than to become money ..."

Abstract
In this article, the writer maintains that illegal immigration is a "hot button" issue can hardly be disputed. The writer points out that health care in the U.S. is also staggering under the costs involved. The writer discusses that many people have tried to link the two, blaming the influx of immigrants for the decline of health care, although the commentary has quite often been more a matter of heat than light. The writer maintains that a good deal of the concern over health care costs centers on emergency room care.

Abstract
In this article the writer discusses the issue of illegal immigration and health care in the US. The writer notes that one aspect of this issue is that illegal immigration is blamed for the deteriorating quality of health care in the Unites States. Specifically, the writer points out that illegal immigration is often blamed for the closing of hospitals. This essay examines hospital closures in California, an area hard-hit by the influx of illegal aliens. The writer concludes that illegal immigration and its attendant costs played only a minimal role in recent hospital closures, so that the link between immigration and hospital closure is, at best, not proven.

From the Paper
"The cost of care that a hospital must provide before it can safely discharge a patient can be very extensive and extremely expensive. In the first case in which the United States Supreme Court dealt with EMTALA, the patient was life-flighted to a hospital. In emergency surgery, doctors removed her spleen. She then remained in acute care, on a ventilator, for some two months. At the point when the hospital was about to transfer her to a nursing home, she developed severe complications and had to be returned to acute care for an additional six months."

Abstract
This paper outlines the Napster lawsuit while providing a brief summary of copyright protection laws and legislation. It explores the concept of file sharing technology in general and how this related to Napster Inc. in particular. It takes a look at the Napster court case and all the details surrounding this legal issue. It concludes with an examination of the RIAA's (Recording Industry Association of America) response to copyright infringement.

From the Paper
"In today's information based world, one confrontational issue is the idea of copyright protection and how it is applied to the Internet. With the invention of the Internet and the World Wide Web, sharing files and intellectual properties amongst thousands if not millions of people became much easier. However, one problem that has been associated with this mass distribution of copyright material is the question of who holds the sole ownership of these intellectual properties. Recently, file sharing utilities such as Imesh, Scour, and most notably Napster have come under fire for infringing on copyright laws and regulations. One important ethical and legal question that has been raised is, who holds the rights to these properties. On the plaintiffs side they argue that the original creator of these intellectual properties holds the copyright and is the only one that can determine how and where these properties will be used. On the defendants side they argue that they are nothing more than a file sharing utility. Napster states that they provide a service to people to share files. Napster's argument is that they cannot be held responsible if their users engage in illegal copyright infringement and that Napster should not be held liable. However the Recording industry of America feels that Napster is nothing more than a tool, which makes the lucrative industry of copyright infringement easier."

Abstract
This paper examines the causes and effects of school closures in Toronto, asserting that these school closures reflect errors made elsewhere in rapid cost-benefit reductions failing to consider long term demographic patterns. The paper also notes that social policies affecting the same area continue to refer to Education but without explaining the imprint made by school closures in a top-heavy educational adminstration beset by fiscal crises. In NZ and in different USA school systems, the risks of closing particularly inner city/low income area schools have been realised towards more US administrations actually preserving an investing in poor area schools understanding their positive imprint.

From the Paper
"This paper describes Toronto District School Board (TDSB) errors duplicating those made elsewhere in school closures according to a cost-benefit rationale that actually means much broader losses. David K. Foot expressed how Canadian educational costs in each province are often incurred by bureaucrats failing to consider demographic patterns of contraction and new expansion towards making schools sustainable till such time as they are again needed. (2000:IX) In 2000, the TDSB terminated 10 of what would be 30 schools in three years in keeping with reductions in ..."
