I wanted to find a company with a range of positions and nothing too physical. I believe Jerome capable of standing all day, but beyond that might push his leg too far.
For the evaluation agency, I wanted to focus as much as mental competencies as physical ones. I developed questions that focused on education, training and past experiences. I wanted the agencies to delve into Jerome's skill set and his attitude towards work, rather than worry about his leg. He has a good education and I felt that this should be the focus. I wanted to get him into either a counseling career or human resources, maybe marketing -- something where psychology can come in handy.
For myself, I did start to feel some biases when working with Jerome. I know that I guided him and our partners away from overly physical jobs -- although to be fair he is 38 years old, which is more a time to...

high degree of misinformation I had received from traditional teachings about the church and the beginning of Christianity. Moreover, I was struck by the notion that most other people in the Western world receive this same degree of intentional misinformation, so much so that I have even heard people defend the idea that knowledge of the historical church is irrelevant to modern Christianity. Reading through the class material, I
There was a debate at the highest levels of Chinese government as to how to handle the problem, with some arguing for stricter regulation and others insisting that the substance simply be banned (Hanes & Sanello, 2002; Bello, 2005). The voices calling for an outright ban of the substance eventually won out, and thus the cultural detriment that opium presented led directly to the band that sparked two wars
