Heliotherapy
Duties and responsibilities: consists of exposure to daylight or to specific wavelengths of light using polychromatic polarised light, lasers, light-emitting diodes, fluorescent lamps, dichroic lamps or very bright, full-spectrum light. The light is administered for a prescribed amount of time and, in some cases, at a specific time of day. One common use of the term is associated with the treatment of skin disorders, chiefly psoriasis, acne vulgaris, eczema and neonatal jaundice. Light therapy which strikes the retina of the eyes is used to treat circadian rhythm disorders such as delayed sleep phase disorder and can also be used to treat seasonal affective disorder, with some support for its use also with non-seasonal psychiatric disorders.
Salary: $250,000
Education: he effect of heliotherapy on psoriasis skin lesions and arthritis was studied in a trial comprising 4 weeks of therapy in the Canary Islands and a 6-month follow-up period. A total of 373 patients participated in the heliotherapy and 361 patients completed the follow-up period. The severity of skin lesions was evaluated using a psoriasis severity index (PSI), and that of the arthropathy by using an arthritis index (AI). During heliotherapy, the PSI decreased significantly from the initial median value of 4.5 to the final value of 0.2. A reduction in the PSI of at least 75% was achieved in 84% of the patients. Guttate psoriasis improved significantly better than plaque-type or erythrodermic psoriasis. There was no correlation between skin type and improvement. Initially, 129 patients had symptoms of arthritis.

Swat
Duties and Responsibilities: The National Tactical Officers Association has established a set of standards for law enforcement agencies to follow, as a means of improving and enhancing the performance of SWAT teams across the country.

Full-time tactical officers must train 25 percent of their on-duty time, in addition to the 40 hour basic course. SWAT officers are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week

President

Duties: The President is the senior volunteer leader of ACTE and serves at the order of the Board and the membership. The President is the Chair of both the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee. The President has general supervision of all business and affairs of the Association and gives direction and inertia to the formulation and achievement of the Associations philosophy, mission, and strategy, and goals. The President assures that the Association is making timely progress toward the fulfillment of its strategic plan.
Salary: $400,000
Education: The Constituation doesn't state any educational requirements to become President of the United States of America. So in other words, as long as you meet the requisistes of being a natural born citizen, being more than 35 years of age, and have lived for at least 14 years in American Soil you can possibly become president of the U.S.A. The presidential debates often let a candidate display his knowledge and/or his ignorance and interviewers often try to trip up a candidate. The papers make a big thing of any mistakes of fact made by a candidate.
