The San Diego Mormon Temple bases its architecture on gothic roots; where the epitome of early gothic architecture is the Chartres Cathedral in France. The Mormon Temple is made of white aggregate stone and stucco, very angular and massive, built as a Gothic revival temple. Designed by William Lewis, Jr., the architect took into consideration Mormon temples in Salt Lake City and Washington, D.C.

Built for the Mormons residing in Southern California, this temples marks the forty-fifth Mormon temple in the world. However, since its closing to the public in April 1993, only Mormons in "good standing" are now able to enter and use this massive structure. Situated in a suburban community of La Jolla/University City, the 59,000 square foot building is surrounded by shopping centers, residential areas and office buildings. There is no escaping the "angular, white monstrosity's" impact on the city.

How long will it take America’s streets to be clean? “In January 2014, there were 578,424 people experiencing homelessness on any given night in the United States” (Snapshot of Homelessness, n.d.). The number of homeless found on the streets continues to increase and more and more are left without food and shelter. They are left to survive off whatever resources they can find, and most nights it is nothing. This epidemic is beginning to grow out of proportion and action must be made to help change the brokenness found on the streets. Covina is one of many cities that has a numerous amount of homeless. The Calvary Chapel Cornerstone Church should implement a program that reaches out to help the homeless find jobs within the community due to

However, safety and efficiency is not what some people think about when entering this airport. As travelers explore in and around the Denver airport, they may notice the white tents that top the massive terminals. Strangehistory.org says these represent the snow covered mountains, or maybe they signify a sinister encampment area? A blue Mustang sculpture with demonic red shining eyes will greet tourists as they travel to the airport. Some will also take note of the many planes travelling in and out of the area using the numerous runways. The design of the runways is said to resemble a Nazi swastika. Within the airport are a few murals that portray some morbid scenes of oppression. There is barbed wire fencing surrounding the area, yet the wire seems to be configured to keep things in rather than keep them out. That is to say this airport is known for the strange occurrences and articles found in and around the massive area.

Catholic Community Services of Ogden has been a front line social service agency since 1945. From that time on, they have provided relief to poverty stricken in the northern Utah community. This paper will look at some of the problems facing children in poverty today. It will explain some of the services provided by Catholic Community Services of Ogden, as well as, how those services relate to children in poverty. This paper will examine some of the generalist social work roles performed at Catholic Community Services of Ogden, plus any biases, transference, or counter-transference issues I might encounter if I worked there. Despite the fact that their funding comes completely through donations, Catholic Community Services is a significant part of the social welfare delivery system because they empower families, they provide parenting education to new mothers, and they work directly to relieve some of the pressures of poverty.
Mormons Moving to Salt Lake City During the nineteenth century there were many different types of people moving west over America. One of these groups was the religious group, the Mormons.

I choose this particular location because not only did it represent a religious sector that I was very uninformed of, but this specific building is one that has been there for almost 15 years now and I would say I have driven by it without paying it any mind just about 5-6 times a week for several years. The Kingdom Hall is made entirely out of red brick. The Kingdom Hall building is a simple setup. They have a general meeting area with about 150 seats inside and a podium for speaking purposes. They have a couple of additional rooms for storage purposes and multipurpose areas like a kitchen and other open areas for different things.
Minority communities are often in areas with lower land values (Kevin 1991). Also, it is likely that house prices declined in the surrounding neighborhood after the waste facility was introduced and economically depressed minority group members may have been unable to move to more affluent settings (Noonan, Krupka and Baden 2007). It is also plausible that minorities move to these neighborhoods at least in part because of the availability and proximity of jobs in the waste facility (Noonan, Krupka & Baden 2007). Additionally, the minority population in these neighborhoods may have grown due to the common tendency of people who move to different communities to migrate to areas already settled by relatives and fellow ethnic group members (Noonan, Krupka and Baden 2007). All these factors independent of racism play a role in why poor minorities live near waste
