Because it is DHHS, we have ad hoc requests of it all the time. DHHS does not allow thumb drives or other USB devices to be connected to their computers and the data is often too large to fit on a CD or DVD, and even if it could, (as they have used them in the past) they do not allow

Common Fallacies in Reasoning The practice of allowing citizens to vote for their leadership is currently used in two-thirds of the world’s countries. As such, it is imperative to the basic freedoms of the public that those citizens are properly educated on the matters they vote for.

Filmmakers have it rough. From making picture perfect movies under a tight budget to editing screenplays, directors have no time to sleep as they have to refine their movie masterpiece. But, how will they deal with unwarranted hatred towards a certain part in their cinematic creation? The answer is straightforward: do not do what Tyler Perry did, which was writing a hasty and offensive open letter. Tyler Perry’s “Kim Kardashian in the Marriage Counselor” was a response from the backlash he received

I often find myself searching for ways to increase efficiency and effectiveness in my professional environment. When instructed to increase education about advance directives and end of life planning by leadership, I immediately approached this from a group perspective. I coordinated with Chaplain Services at the James Quillen VA and began leading a group focused on VA Form 10-0137 and end of life planning. Each page of the 5 page form was reviewed with every Veteran, questions were answered, and
