American Individualism, Identity, and the Cost of the Dream
America provides us with huge opportunities. It promises immigrants the possibility of starting life anew in a (whether true or not) an endlessly opportunity-filled country. Children of immigrants can break out of their poverty and classlessness and become paragons of this new society, landing positions in academic and business. Opportunities are endless, but, t the same time, these opportunities can only be achieved at massive loss. Many of the immigrants find out too late that opportunity causes loneliness and rootedness as wells loss of their mother-culture. Melting pot though it no longer is – we believe that each culture is afforded their own space – the quoted authors demonstrate nonetheless that America, still to this present day, imposes a certain pressure to succeed. Success is synonymous with Americanization. It is this that results in the dichotomy of America talking about family values, on the one hand, but preaching and pushing a life of self-sufficiency on the other.

Lou Gehrig's Disease: ALS Technologies and Personal Impact
ALS – Terminal Illness Introduction This paper delves into the severe medical condition known as Lou Gehrig's disease. The paper presents pertinent data about the disease both from the literature available and from a personal position of testimony. Also, this paper reviews the technologies that are used to relive patients who suffer from the disease, and delves into the problems associated with attempts to mitigate the debilitating effects of Lou Gehrig's disease. What is Lou Gehrig's disease? Lou Gehrig's disease – also known by its medical name, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) – is a "rapidly progressive, invariably fatal neurological disease…" that attacks an individual's nerve cells (neurons), those cells that normally control the muscles that are voluntary, according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). The ALS sufferer is taken through the painful reality of this disease gradually, as the motor neurons degenerate slowly and take away the patient's ability to move muscles as he or she once did.
