Those that agree to be in the study will be sent questions by email or interviewed by telephone. They will be able to choose the form of participation they want to provide. They will all be asked identical questions. Those questions will include:
1. Do you support stem cell research? Why or why not?
2. If you do please answer the following questions:
What field of medicine are you in? What is your specialty?
3. Do you believe that stem cell research is necessary to the advancement of the medical field?
4. What disorders or diseases do you believe it can be used to cure?
5. Do you believe it is playing God?
6. How do you think stem cell research should be funded?
7. What if any limits do you believe should be placed on stem cell research?
The answers will be gathered and compiled in a computer spread sheet that will first, identify and categorize the answers, then will provide an area to gather the editorial portions of the answers provided.
The experts will be from the local hospital directory and will include a mixture of different specialties. The study will target 100 medical professionals through a letter inviting them to participate and will use the first 10 that agree to take part in the study.
SURVEY
The third part of the research will be a questionnaire survey that will be distributed to randomly selected members of society. There will be 800 surveys printed and they will include a self addressed stamped envelope for their return.
Participants will be asked if they are over the age of 18 and an ID will be shown before the survey is given to them.
The participants will be located through the local university and area businesses. The research team will establish themselves within these areas and ask people if they would be willing to take a survey with them and fill it out and send it back. They will be told that if they take one and send it in, once it is received they will be sent two dollars for their participation. While this offer for two dollars is a very small amount of money it is being offered in the hopes that participants will remember to send their survey in.
Out of the 800 printed out and handed out at various establishments the first 100 that are returned and completed will be used for the purpose of this study.
The survey will be divided into three different area.
The first part will ask for basic demographic information including age, economic standing, race, and general geographic area. There will also be a section on part one that will ask what they do for a living or if they are in college what their major is.
The second section will ask questions about their stem cell knowledge. Have they heard of the research? Do they know what it is about? Have they heard about the controversy surrounding the topic?
The third section will address their personal opinions about stem cell research and will include some of the following questions:
1. Do you think stem cell research should be allowed to continue? Why or why not?
2. Do you think there should be limits to what stem cell research is allowed to do?

Good researchers tend to pull methods out of a tool kit as they are needed" (2006, p. 54). Notwithstanding these criticisms and constraints, though, most social researchers seem to agree that classification by some type of research paradigm is a useful approach based on the need to determine which approach is best suited for a given research enterprise. In this regard, Corby concludes that, "The contested nature of research

As the term suggest, liquefied natural gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been reduced to a liquid by cooling it to minus 161°C thereby eliminating oxygen, carbon dioxide and other unwanted components to achieve almost pure methane (Liquefied Natural Gas 2012). According to one LNG producer, "In the liquefaction process, impurities are removed from the gas before it is cooled. The cooling of natural gas to -162°C causes it
These proteins include homologous members of yeast. The presences of these proteins suggest that E. histolytica is skilled to perform homologous recombination, which is the same as in other organisms. DNA damage was evaluated by TUNEL assay. In yeast and in human cells, histone H2AX becomes rapidly phosphorylated when DSBs are introduced into chromatin (Lavi et al.). Studies show that histone as a protein plays a significant role in the
The trainer will then focus on the steps to be taken to develop new skills. For example, if the trainer wants to talk about motivating, leading, negotiating, selling or speaking, it is best to start with what the learners do well before showing some chart on Maslow's theory, Posner's leadership practices, or selling skills from some standard package that has been develop elsewhere. Many foreign trainers make grave errors
