Kryptoniteâs debilitating effect on Superman is the result of its interactions with Supermanâs cells. Since Supermanâs power comes from the Earthâs yellow sun, we can envision him as either a particularly handsome and muscular plant (if thatâs not too weird of a mental image) or a living solar panel.
The Job Corps program has trained and educated two million individuals since it was first established. Approximately 62,000 young people each year participate in the program through 125 Job Corps centers throughout the country. A new center in Manchester, New Hampshire, is scheduled to open in 2013, and a total of 122 centers are expected to be operational that year.
Young people ages 16 through 24 who meet low-income requirements can enroll in the program at no cost to them. Because Job Corps is a voluntary program, students choose to enroll in the program and may exit at any time. *The maximum age limit may be waived if the applicant is a person with a documented disability.
