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.
The Corps consists of about 34,600 civilian and 650 military engineers, scientists and other specialists who work on both engineering and environmental matters. It is organized geographically into eight divisions in the United States and 41 subordinate districts throughout the United States, Asia and Europe.
