Chemists, usually working as part of a larger research team, create useful compounds for use in a wide variety of practical applications. Almost every industry benefits from the theories and chemical compounds brought about by research in the chemical sciences. Chemists also work to improve the quality of established chemical products and utilize advanced computer programs to establish new technologies in the field.

They study and solve complex problems in computing for business, science, medicine, and other uses. Most work for computer systems design and related services firms, scientific research and development companies, or the federal government. Most work full time, and those who do independent research may have flexibility in their work schedules.
Acupuncturist

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing art, practiced for more than 2,000 years. Acupuncturists specialize in a group of treatments that fall under the general category of acupuncture. Many people assume that acupuncture is only about needles, but in reality there are numerous treatment techniques used. There are many different styles, including Chinese Japanese and Korean Acupuncture, but all have a common goal: the restoration and maintenance of good health and prevention of illness. Acupuncture is rooted in traditional Oriental Medicine which views perfect health as a state of balance. Disease and illness are caused when the Qi, or vital energy of the body, is in imbalance. Stimulating certain points on the body corrects this imbalance and shifts the body towards balance, reducing pain and restoring good health. In recent years acupuncture has gained wider acceptance and use in Western cultures, and is often recommended by mainstream physicians as an adjunct treatment. With an increasing focus on complementary and alternative medicine, acupuncture is a career that is likely to see significant growth.

Singer

The history of singing goes back to the earliest recordings of mankind (as early as 800 B.C.) and songs are believed to have been used even before the development of modern languages. In western culture, singers were often restricted to only singing in churches until the fourteenth century. The rise of operas and performances thereafter laid the groundwork for today's professional singers. A singer (also referred to as a vocalist) is a person that vocalizes musical sounds with tone and pitch, and uses his or her own voice to produce music. Singers may sing solo or in a group, and are oftentimes accompanied by instrumental music. Professional singers are usually highly trained and also possess a certain level of natural singing ability including a wide vocal range or pleasant vocal resonation. Singing is an accepted art form that is taught in most public and private schools. It can also be a fun activity and be casual entertainment, such as karaoke. The physical act of singing occurs as air passes through the larynx, throat, and mouth, and it's interesting to note that vocal resonation in singing involves seven areas of the human body: - Chest - Tracheal tree - Larynx - Pharynx - Oral Cavity - Nasal Cavity - Sinuses
