Victor Rios starts of the book by giving a brief background of his own life and what he experienced as a child in the ghettos of Oakland, California and the events that caused him to turn from his old way of life. During the span of Victor Rios’ juvenile years he decide to join and become a gang member Rios states “I joined the gang seeking protection that I thought police and other authority figures in the community had failed to provide”(Rios ix) Rios’ quote is the most commonly known reason why youth in urban areas seek out membership in gangs which is a lack of protection and involvement from police and authoritative figures in bettering these communities. Along with his membership he partook in deviant acts and so on. Rios talks about this boy he knew that went by the name “smiley” that would hang around the gang a lot. Before “Smiley” was initiated to the gang Rios notes how Smiley would tell him stories of how teachers would treat him punitively meaning that they were aiming to punish him based on his prior actions and his color. Rios mentioned “Smiley” as being a naïve boy, he suffered physical abuse from his parents along with that his parents often kicked him out as a punishment for questioning them and informing them about the negative ways his teachers went about treating him. Soon after “Smiley” was initiated into the gang, Rios states that they became best friends and had a sense of looking

With his newfound success, the artist’s life began to take a turn for the worse. According to Héctor, in one of the many private parties he went to after shows he came across a table full of drugs and drug users. Some say the drug addiction was sparked when he married Puchi since she was well known for moving in an environment of drugs and conflict. He began to smoke marijuana and snort cocaine, but his true love became heroin. He fell so in love with the drug that it began to take over his life until his continuous use of the drug managed to infiltrate and ruin his personal and professional life. Heroin became more important to Héctor and he began to miss practices and show up late to events (Rodriguez, 2007). The lack of punctuality to his events gave rise for a nickname, a sarcastic name that titled him “The King of Punctuality,” which later was the name of a song written for him by Pacheco (Perez, 1999).

Moises Gutierrez was born on July 26, 1966 in Guadalajara, Mexico, but he was living with his mother and father during his time in Tepatitlan, Mexico. He was the first-born son within a family of six, two boys and four girls. In fact, he would even give nicknames to all his siblings, which consisted of, in order: Guillermina Diaz, known as “Gorthies”; Blanca Gutierrez, known as “Nena”; Alma Cuevas, known as “Chita”; Alex Gutierrez, “Zorille”; and Faby Gutierrez, known as “Cariole” (Alex). Their current living status was at the poverty level, constantly living and moving to different homes constantly, while other times they did not live in homes at all. Yet despite their living and financial status, they would constantly live in neighborhoods that were great and safe for anyone. Those neighborhoods would have many other children to play with, and many of the adults were good people, proving a haven for all those within the neighborhood, no matter how much money they are or aren’t making. And it was thanks to these neighborhoods and all those living within that helped Moises Gutierrez grow up into a person that “always has a smile on his face, and constantly making friends with anyone and everyone” (Cuevas). However, even though that he made many friends, many of them would be, according to my uncle Alex Gutierrez, “Moises’ outer circle friends”, and that there were only a select few who were, “Moises’ friends within his inner circle.” It is these inner circle friends that

Over 2-year community college provides me the most basic skills to survive in the USA academic environment. Now I’m confident enough to go a step further.

The first time that Mr. Hernandez and his brother left his home town was when he was 12 years old and the reason why they left was because they were told by a friend who was in Chicago that there was good work and people made good money. He and his brother decided to try out their luck so they crossed the border and set off to Chicago. When they arrived at Chicago they got work in a factory making metal cabinets for offices. During his time there he had experience something new that he had never new about, “I had experience my first act of racism against me for being Mexican”. He says that the food and the climate was not what he had expected and he only stayed there for three months and decided that the American culture was not for him. He found himself out of place and couldn’t relate with the current culture that he was in, so he decided to go back to Mexico to seek the comfort of his home town. Upon arrival to his home town in Mexico he didn’t know that he would have a strange feeling almost of feeling out of place. The greeting of his friends and family that he got was not one to he had expected. Friends would tease him by calling him “Here comes the gringo” meaning here comes the white man. Mr. Hernandez says that he was tease because people in a way felt like if a person would leave Mexico it was because he felt that he was better than the rest of the people. Mr. Hernandez faced many social pressures from his community for seeking to better his finances.

Hectors care for his family and his city, and his work to save them

The purpose of this assignment was to state why the topic of engaging dental hygiene students with the use of technology that supported active learning wanted to be studied, what was already presumed about this topic, if there are personal experience associated with this topic that might create obstacles, if this topic benefited the field of education, and if this topic sustained a prolonged focus to complete the Capstone project.

The focus of this project is to do an evaluation of the preliminary results observed in the first two years of the study. I am interested in answering the following questions:

After the majority of the assets were gathered they were imported into Captivate. These assets were broken into three smaller productions so that could be managed. They were the new incident, search incident and relate incident productions. After combining the pertinent assets into their respective productions the audio was generated. Then using the tools available in Adobe Captivate’s IDE button were added to link slides. Using the instruction in the narration markers were created to direct the placement of text boxes that would accept user input. Following that and using the same audio objects such and bordered squares and arrows were created to control the end-user’s focus. (Shirts,

According to the famous politician, Bob Riley, “Hard times don’t create heroes. It is during the hard times when the ‘hero’ within us is revealed.” In Homer’s epic poem the Iliad, Hector is a hero who does not give up even during the hardest of times. Hector’s compassion, respect, and altruism affects the actions of the Trojans and his own fate. Evidently, Hector's attributes earn him the honor he deserves.

My Capstone Proposal Project will be about sleep disturbances associated with cardiac surgery patients. My proposed strategy consists of the idea that by increasing nursing education and intervention there will be a reduction in sleep disturbances for the cardiac surgery population. I will be using the qualitative research method for my problem solving approach. The grounded theory design will work for my proposed problem because it changes direction contingent on data collection and analyses (Keele, 2011). The sample will be selected from Duke University Hospital’s cardiothoracic surgery stepdown units, including only the cardiac surgical patients. The data will be collected using questionnaires, patient sleep journals, rating scales, and Hospital Consumer Assessment of Health Plans Survey (HCAHPS) scores. The Capstone Project Proposal implementation plan has the set goal to confirm that through nursing education of sleep and sleep hygiene, there will be a reduction in sleep disturbances experienced by cardiac surgical patients.

Hector the great fighter that he is, can appear as a great leader by him showing a sense of kindness and a concern for others. He displays his kindness and concern for his army a lot throughout this story. Holding his child, Hector prays over him to the Zeus, father of gods and men: "Zeus, all you immortals! Grant this boy, my son, maybe like me, first in glory among the Trojans, strong and brave like me, and rule all Troy in power and one day let them say, 'He is a better man than his father” (Book 6 p. 211 Lines 568 - 571)

Hector as a brave leader and a family man The epitome of the humane hero is Hector, the prince of the Trojans. He is depicted as a fierce fighter in that no Greek would maintain a stand against him or even face him. Hector can even stand against Ajax, the Greek
