Dean Kamen
Kamen's style is
From this well-stocked basement came a whole new set
of really neat projects. My younger brother, Mitch, and
his friends, as well as some of my own friends, would
come after school to help. At sixteen I was now a young
entrepreneur, paying them for their help. I was surprised
by the number of orders I was getting for more and more
equipment. Soon I didn't have time to build and design
new things. Giving over this work to other kids gave me
more time to do what I wanted to do. This went on after
school and all summer long.

The singer and songwriter Bob Dylan once wrote, “A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.” Do you agree with this definition of success? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your position.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Bob Dylan, one of the greatest folk musicians and entertainers, has always been the anti-establishment hero. Since I started listening to him, he’s always been against “the man”.In true Dylan style, he starts with “What’s money?” But I think that’s irrelevant to the underlying theme in this quote. I also agree with Dylan’s assessment of success here.When a person does what he wants to do, that brings a feeling of fulfillment, of accomplishment, of worth. At least that’s what I feel. Doing what one wants to do with their life makes people happy, makes people successful.Do you spend the time you are awake doing what you want to do? Is that one of your goals?  What do you need to do to achieve that goal?  You’ve heard that you should do what your passionate about. You should find your passion and do it.  Find what you like to do and find a way to make it work for you, so you can do what you want to do between the time you get up in the morning and go to bed at night.

song of the open road by Walt Whitman afoot and light-hearted, i take to the open road, healthy, free, the world before me, the long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose. Henceforth I ask not good-fortune—i myself am good-fortune; henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing, strong and content, I travel the open road. . . .from this hour, freedom! From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines, going where I list, my own master, total and absolute, listening to others, and considering well what they say, pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me. I inhale great draughts of space; the east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine. I am larger, better than I thought; I did not know I held so much goodness. all seems beautiful to me; I can repeat over to men and women, you have done such good to me, i would do the same to you. I will recruit for myself and you as I go; I will scatter myself among men and women as I go; I will toss the new gladness and roughness among them; whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me; whoever accepts me, he or she shall be blessed, and shall bless me.

How could healthcare be improved for the elderly

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

With the Baby Boomer and Generation X groups getting older each day, the country is facing the reality that by 2025, one quarter of the workforce will be above 55,”The problem doesn’t only lie in the fact that Americans are living longer. They’re also, generally speaking, more sick. The CDC recently noted that the number of individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s would double by the year 2060, and the rise of chronic illness affects nearly half of all adults in the U.S. Seniors are also more likely to experience macular degeneration and life threatening dental problems. This inevitably puts a strain on an already overburdened and understaffed healthcare system. Here are some ways we can fix this problem

Creating comprehensive patient assessments that include a complete review of all medical, psychosocial, lifestyle, and patient values

Creation and implementation of an evidenced-based plan of care that addresses all of the patient’s health-related needs

Communication and coordination with all who provide care for the patient in question

Promotion of the patient’s (and their caregiver’s) engagement in their own healthcare

Answer:

Answer:f(x) ≥ 0 over the interval [-1,1].

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordered pairs of the given function in table are (-3,15), (-2,-5), (-1,0), (0,5), and (1,0).

It is clear from the values of f(x) with respect to x, that the function reaches zero at x = -1, then goes up to 5 at x = 0 and then again reaches zero at x = 1.

Hence, the value of f(x) remains positive within the interval of [-1,1].

Hence, we can write f(x) ≥ 0 over the interval [-1,1]. (Answer
