For my essay, I need to establish that patriotism is positively correlated with the level of threat that the country experiences, but I’m not sure how to approach that, or how I should start researching. For example, in 2003 shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attack and the Bush administration’s announcement of the Iraqi War, patriotism in the US reached its peak. And it is an anomaly that although the US now faces threats from the ISIS, American patriotism has been declining since 2003. So in order to argue that it is an anomaly, I need to clearly establish that patriotism goes high when the level of threat from abroad goes high. But how should I start researching?

For much of 2011 and 2012, public dissatisfaction with Congress rose to all time highs, with 70-80% expressing disapproval with how Congress does its job. Many commentators note that Americans are fed up with Washington “grid-lock” that makes government apparently unable to address important problems. Other observers believe that the national government is acting according to its design, based on separation of powers and checks and balances. Before writing your initial post, review the assigned resources. To easily access the resources from the Ashford University Library, please see the table located in the Course Materials section.In your initial post of at least 200-250 words, analyze how the U.S. Constitution implements separation of powers and checks and balances.

For Module 3, you will complete a 5 – 8-pages paper addressing the following topic:
Temperature Inversion — In the winter months in a small town located in a valley, a temperature inversion has occurred. An inversion is a change the normal atmosphere where a layer of cool air at the surface is overlain by a layer of warmer air, therefore limiting the ability for air at the bottom to escape. An inversion can lead to pollution and contaminates being trapped close to the ground, with possible adverse effects on health.
To Prepare: Review the Learning Resources and the above scenario. Think about your role as current or future environmental health/ public health professional and how you might address the scenario. Also, think about the responsibilities and services you may be called upon to carry out for the community.
You must: Include an APA style title page / include APA style headings for each section of your paper / cite the sources within your text in APA style / and include an APA formatted reference list at the end of your paper.
Instructions for students
For this assignment, you will prepare a paper on the environmental health functions and public health responsibilities related to an air quality control and protection scenario provided by your professor.
Review the Learning Resources provided in this module, your textbook, the CDC website, and any other quality public health or academic resources, and think about how the core functions of environmental health are related air quality control and protection. Visit the Walden writing center and review your Essential Guide to APA style for writing assistance.
Your paper must include the following:
· A title page, in APA format.
· Section headers, in APA format, for each section below:
· Describe the air quality incident and highlight the unique attributes of this situation and why it is a public health concern. Explain the situational background and why a public health response would be warranted.
· Describe the potential human health effects of this incident, taking into account the unique environmental health factors that influence exposure. What challenges/barriers can you expect to face given this information?
· Analyze the core public health roles and responsibilities in responding to the event and how local, state and federal public health agencies may work together in controlling the air quality incident. Also, what other resources and/or partnerships may be needed to respond to this incident?
· Describe the specific public health and community protection procedures that you feel will best protect the community and why? Make sure to discuss at minimum, incident investigation, exposure assessment, hazard containment, and public information dissemination.
· Provide a summary/conclusion adequately closing the paper and finalizing your thoughts.
· Cite the sources within your text and be sure to follow APA format.
· An APA formatted reference list at the end of your paper
For Module 3, conduct a literature search utilizing peer-reviewed journal articles, books, professional organization Web sites and articles, etc., to continue working on your program/intervention plan (which you started in Module 2) and propose appropriate evaluation measures to evaluate effectiveness of your program.
Write a paper (3 pages in length) including a complete workplan that shows your implementation procedures to address the health behavior and describing your methods to evaluate your program/intervention. A workplan sample can be found at http://www.cdc.gov/OralHealth/state_programs/pdf/workplans.pdf
The following items will be assessed in particular:
SLP Assignment Expectations
Assessment and Grading: Your paper will be assessed based on the performance assessment rubric. You can view it under Assessments at the top of the page. Review it before you begin working on the assignment. Your work should also follow these Assignment Expectations.
For Milestone Two, you will research government fiscal policies as they relate to the 10-year historical period that you chose in Module One, and present the information in 3–5 new slides for your presentation. Be sure to read the Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric to ensure you are covering the critical elements of this assignment.
To assist you with your Milestone Two presentation, use the PowerPoint template provided. Submit the presentation here. This milestone will inform your final project.
For Milestone Three, you will submit your Financial Assessment and Resource Planning Brief, which will become part of Component 3, due in Module Nine. In the brief, you will begin developing key financial documents.
Which set of formulate do you use for the test (µb = average for boys, and µg = average for girls)?
For Newton, the time interval between two physical events dt is also absolute, or as he put it absolute and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature, flows equably without relation to anything external, and by another name is called duration. That remains the same with respect to all observers (a Lorentz invariant) who differ in state of motion by a constant vector velocity. Two observers in motion relative to one another (especially close to the speed of light) who measure events to be separated in space and time may differ in the individual values of d!2 and dt 2 , but not in ds 2 . Einsteins theory of general relativity adds the ideas that gravitation might curve space and warp time. What do we mean by that?
