Thesis and support

Throughout life there are many children that go through things that they should never experience. Teen pregnancy can be a major cause and outcome of this problem children have to face. Teen pregnancy is a major cause of orphans and children placed in foster care, abused children, and more teen pregnancy which starts the cycle over.

Problem statement

There are major issues circling this globe today as we speak. Teen pregnancy being one main focus. Teen pregnancy is a major problem because of what we see happening all around us. Teenagers and their parents are most effected by this. Just because of the way they are going to have money issues and some teens just ain't ready to settle down and have a child yet. Teens not taking abstinence is what is causing this problem. They cause it through no abstinence because they don't think before they act at all. These teens go out and party and get put under the influence and a couple weeks later they turn around and they're pregnant because they did something stupid under the influence. Many people have tried to fix this issue but they have been mostly unsuccessful. This is due to everyone ignoring what adults say when they are trying to let their kids know they are not ready for a child. They just go off and do what they want. If this problem isn't solved, soon this world will have more people in poverty than we already have and we will be highly over populated and because of it we will slowly run out of more and more resources. Teen pregnancy is a major problem around the world today and we need to resolve it before something worse comes out of it.

"Digital Music Sampling," and "Plagiarism Blurs Lines."

Throughout the world there are many ideas that cause on to look back and see how many things that our main ancestors created is still causing problems in the end.  They are constantly telling us what we can’t copy or what we can’t use because it is illegal.  This causes whatever company to gain money because they are sewing people for theft.  This makes it so much more unfair.  The fact that the society only cares about money and they are willing to do anything to have a way to do things without much effort causes the world to see what we are really coming to now.  For example in “Plagiarism Lines Blur for Students in Digital Age,” a Rhode Island College freshman didn’t want to site his sources and the same thing happened at DePaul University when a student was copying paragraphs and was caught by a program that in which turns the plagiarized sections of the story purple.  What has our society come to? They are constantly cheating and trying to take the easy way out when, everyone knows, adult life is nothing about cheating around things.  The fact that we are getting lazy the society is beginning to become stricter about many things when it comes to the idea of using another’s “property”.  The idea that you are no longer allowed to even using a piece of a sound or piece of information without citing or paying, because they are stealing.  This is not fair to the society today.  First the internet taught the world to be lazy with everything; people now are able to cheat their way through research and reading because the internet will tell them everything they need to know.  Also, now people are getting upset because there are less and less music sights with free music because everyone wants money.  All the society wants is to be lazy and be rich, but when the react together, there is never a good outcome to the issues that is really going on in the world.  When taking information without citation or buying a piece of the article and having proof will cause another person lose the money they are trying so hard to earn, but it is also causing you more poverty.  This idea is just because they will press charges through the roof to make you pay for what you used, or kick you out of school, but this company has already taken lots of money from the rest of the world.

Murder trial

Cheltenham murder shows threat of workplace violence
February 23, 2010
The brutal murder of Hannah Wheeling, a teacher and counselor at the Cheltenham Youth Facility, is a very real tragedy, for her family, her co-workers, her students and clients, and for our entire community. It is a loss that deeply disturbs us as a union of professionals in state government because Ms. Wheeling's violent death occurred at her workplace.

Hannah Wheeling was a dedicated teacher and public servant. According to co-workers and family, she worked long hours on lesson plans. Few teachers with her experience seek out the work that she did, working with troubled youth in correctional facilities. Must we accept workplace violence as part of our jobs as public servants?

The Maryland Professional Employees Council (MPEC), which represents teachers at Cheltenham as well as professional employees in state government, believes that the answer is no. Research on workplace violence over the years shows that work related assaults and fatalities are, for the most part, preventable. There are demonstrated comprehensive work place violence prevention programs that have been shown to drastically reduce the rates of assault, injury and death. Had such a program been in place at her facility, perhaps Ms. Wheeling's life may have been spared. Our state and federal laws have been largely silent on mandating these workplace violence prevention programs, and now is the time to step up the regulatory agenda on workplace violence.

The Maryland Occupational Safety and Health Administration (MOSH) may be able to start an investigation on Ms. Wheeling's case even in the absence of a workplace violence standard.

Indeed Maryland's law on occupational safety and health provides that "each employer shall provide each employee with a place of employment that [is] safe and healthful and free from each recognized hazard that is causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm."

Workplace violence is a well-recognized hazard in facilities such as these and has been studied by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and noted academic researchers for a number of years.

Many state employees work in state facilities with clients or inmates with a history of mental illness or with serious behavior problems, some potentially violent. No one should be expected to work in an unsafe situation or where they are subject to assault or loss of life.

There is one thing we do know that is essential: Front line employees and their union representatives must be fully involved in the planning, development and implementation of programs to prevent workplace violence.

On behalf of the Maryland Professional Employees Council (MPEC), I am calling on the administration of the Cheltenham Youth Facility and the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services to work with us on the development of a workplace violence prevention program. We are also asking that MOSH conduct a full investigation into this tragic loss of life to see if there is evidence of a violation of our state and federal safety laws.

We are asking that MOSH partner with the administration and our union to develop programs with the goal of stopping workplace violence.

We know that the administration, co-workers, and our union wish to honor the life of Hannah Wheeling. Her lifelong work and exemplary service to children and our community should be celebrated and memorialized. One of the best ways that we can honor and remember her is to re-dedicate ourselves to doing all we can to stop workplace violence in the future.
