Comparing Apple and Sony and Their Approach to Social Responsibility
In order to maintain ethical standards, every company must decide whether they will conform to either the school of ethical universalism, ethical relativism, or the integrated social contracts theory. Obviously there are pros and cons to all three of these schools of thought. Also, every successful company should develop a strategy that exemplifies that they are socially responsible. The U.S. based company Apple and the overseas company Sony both have similar schools of thought when it comes to their corporate ethical standards. However, Apple and Sony have taken unique steps toward proving that they are socially responsible companies.

10 Reasons Why You Should Attend a Community College
Working at a community college over the last several years has led me to believe that the majority of people should start their education at one rather than starting at a bigger university first. I remember when I was about to graduate high school and I was researching various colleges and universities all around the country. I did come very close to going to a private college in Florida. The private college was going to offer me several scholarships, however even with the scholarships I would have still had to take out loans in order to get through my degree. Even as a naïve 17-year-old, I decided that I did not want to have massive amounts of student loans to be paying on all throughout my adulthood and career. Instead of enrolling at the very tempting private college, I made a huge decision to attend a local community college. When I look back on my decision to attend a local community college, I am so thankful because, not only did I get a good education, but it is where I found a job and met my beautiful wife. Here are ten reasons why the average person should attend a community or state college versus going to a university first.

To Be Coy
If life were longer, then playing hard to get wouldn't be such a problem. We could sit, or walk, just enjoying life for its length. I've loved you since forever and yet you keep on refusing my passion. When you and I are dead and gone, it will be too late for us because life is all too short. Now, while you are still young and glazed in radiant beauty... Let us seize the day and make love while we are still young and strong. Let us embrace one another and enjoy the strength and beauty of our found love. Although we cannot stop time that is forever racing, we will, instead, make time fly, if we spend the rest of our lives together.

Self-Care for Counselors in Training
Abstract The purpose of this work is to explore the results of four different self-care and personal wellness assessments that were taken. An analysis of the results and questions in the assessments are addressed and a correlation between all the assessments is gathered. The results act as a starting point, or a point of reference, as the entry into the counseling profession is considered and prepared for. The second portion of the work delves into specific action steps that will be carried out in an attempt at achieving overall wellness and practicing the best form of self-care. In accomplishing such, it acts as a means of fighting against the impairments that try to rise and impede progress in the counseling profession. Self-care for counselors is crucial as they are commonly predisposed to already having personality traits that are very others-focused and altruistic. Counselors should be aware of their possible impairments because it could lead to the demise of themselves, their clients, and their counseling practice.
