Introduction

The best way to describe critical reflection is through a passage delivered by Aldous Huxley in which he said, “Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happened to him” (University of Texas, 2012). In the healthcare profession, a health professional is confronted by situations that that requires critical understanding. Some encounters are challenging and perplexing. And because there is a level of urgency in the practice of medicine and healthcare, majority of the time healthcare practitioners does not have the luxury of time to contemplate on their actions. This is unless the incident ...

Introduction

American history is not marked by heavenly lifestyle, but it’s filled with violence and conflicts. One of the major issues that challenge America's democratic setup is their ethnic diversity. After the civil war, the ethnic divisions continued among people and this time the conflicts are based on immigrants. The tensions surrounding immigration peaked from 1875 to 1930 where the US governments during that period came up with so many legislations in swift response to these tensions. In this assignment, we would analyse the important events of immigration between 1875-1930 that caused major tensions and how the US governments ...

Regional Stability, Global Security: Finding a Workable Answer to Iran’s Nuclear Threat
In the modern world, “rogue” states have become adept at wielding the threat of nuclear weaponry in the global political arena and wringing concessions from developed nations that have, at best, an imprecise knowledge of whether, and at what stage of development, nations like North Korea and Iran possess nuclear capability. It is a matter of intense interest among America’s intelligence and diplomatic communities to determine whether the persistently belligerent regime in Iran seeks political leverage against Israel and the United ...

The effects of bilingualism in a minority language on third language acquisition

Abstract
In the area of language acquisition, bilinguals differ from monolinguals in several ways. It is accepted that previous language knowledge is facilitative in developing proficiency in a new language and both the learner’s native and non-native languages can be sources of influence in acquiring a new language. Given the evidence that in some social situations knowledge of a second language is facilitative in learning a third, the paper investigates to what extent knowledge of a widely-spoken but non-official local language can be shown to be facilitative in this way. The students in this study are ...

The learning processes for both adults and children have similarities although adults are more focused at learning and absorbing information much faster than children. Adults come with responsibilities and experiences that help them learn faster. They are self-motivated, goal-oriented, and self-directed, thus, the approach to teaching adults should be a lot more different (QOTFC). This is where educational philosophy comes in which is composed of several ideologies that characterize what schools are expected to be and do. This paper will touch on the various educational philosophies and aspects relating the concepts to adult education.

Domestic Violence

“Domestic violence” can be defined as “the willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, and other systematic behavior [designed] to be part of a systematic pattern of power and control perpetrated by one intimate partner against another.” It is a contagion impacting people in every community regardless of social station in life, age, gender, racial background, nationality, or religious pursuit. This action is commonly followed by psychological abuse and extreme domineering dispositions against the other partner; however, this is only a fraction of the structured pattern designed to force and domination over the other. Ultimately, the action of domestic brutality can ...

Today’s world is influenced by many factors such as globalization, cultural influences and the presence of the open market. Europe is a fine proof of this influence as it is more open for international business. Products from around the globe can be accessed by all types of consumers in the European market. Many find the European market more open to international businesses. Some find their successes in the European market through the use of good market analysis. Brooksbank (1991) notes that good market analysis is a key to the successful marketing plan;; it gives companies advice which will ...

This paper shall focus on two main emergency theories. These are the Chaos Theory as advanced by Klaus Mainzer and the Disaster Theory as advanced by Thomas Drabek. The ...

Thomas Stearns Eliot is one of the most important poets of the 20th century of the English language. The American –born turn British poet and playwright was also a literary critic whose works are still influential to this day.
“Hollow Men” is one of Eliot’s major poems published in 1925. Its main thematic concerns include the post war Europe, salvation and to some extent issues of marriage relationships which some critic attribute to Eliot’s own marriage to Vivienne which did not survive their full lives.

In what easily passes as intentional fallacy, Eliot says that he derived ...

Abstract

Can female participation in the labor force contribute to economic growth? Is there a causal relationship between female participation in the labor force and economic growth? This paper addresses these questions using the vector error correction model. For this study, an annual time series data for the period 1970 to 2012 for the United States has been used. The results show that there exists a co-integration between female participation and GDP per capita, which is a proxy measure for economic development. The result does not support a two-way causality between the variables. However, a causality running from GDP per ...

Cancer is a mainstay health concern for health practitioners and bodies as well as the public in virtually every state and country. Despite the remarkable progress in addressing the issue, there are serious challenges facing the development of new drugs for cancer patients. Gilliland and Gary argued that the practice of developing new cancer drugs depends on a combined effort by the public and private investment and how they deal with various elements constituting the process (2012 p. 215). This paper seeks to enlighten the public on the business of developing new cancer drugs for cancer patients by examining the related ...

Though it is hard to establish, the link between cancer and glucose does exist. This is especially disturbing given the fact that the link between diabetes and glucose has been of particular interest to the science community for the past three decades. The bottom line is that most of the problematic cum chronic illnesses in the world today are to a large extent lifestyle diseases. In fact, research has advanced to the extent that the link between strains of diabetes and those of cancer ...

Jodi Picoult’s novel, My Sister’s Keeper, introduces many complex themes such as ethical dilemmas, medical autonomy and justice. The story introduces Anna Fitzgerald, a thirteen year old girl, as the protagonist. Anna wishes to sue her parents for medical emancipation as Anna’s parents expect her to give up one of her kidneys for her older sister, Kate, who suffers from Leukaemia. Picoult tackles her subject with skill and sensitivity, and not only raises the themes into public consciousness, but makes them accessible to a wide audience.
The book reveals, early on, that Anna was conceived because Kate ...

Irrespective of how well knowledgeable I am on this topic, there are still other more significant things to mull over if this presentation is to be successful. I have developed an instance of this audience analysis rooted in an in-person presentation concerning ...

David Sinclair, the father of five-month-old Joshua, was sentenced to seven years and three months in jail. Originally the cause of the tot’s death was unidentified. The man stated that the baby simply turned blue and stopped breathing, that’s why he immediately dialed 999. The High Court in Glasgow that took jurisdiction soon discovered information. A team of medical experts found out that the man assaulted his baby son by shaking him and caused the injuries which killed him (Glanfield, 2016). Though Sinclair knew that he shook Joshua approximately five seconds, he disclosed that only after the ...

XX century was characterized with the significant technological progress, which has improved the life of people. Numerous products and services became available, labor and domestic life became easier and more comfortable. However, waste problem is the other side of the technological progress.

Therefore, in XXI century the research efforts are dedicated to development of methods for sustainable use of water, gas, and solid resources.
Wastewater polluted with dye residuals originate from textile, leather and food industry. These industries produce goods that ...

The differences between the Christianity and Judaism lie in the differences of understanding, evaluation and apprehension of the Old Testament and the New Testament. To understand what happens then, we must first take into account the fact that, originally, the nascent Christian movement is fully Jewish. Jesus himself is Jewish. His disciples were Jewish. And all the great figures of the first Christian generation, Jacques, Peter, and Paul, to name a few, are Jews. Thus, the Christian movement was born and began to grow within Judaism. However, that Judaism was soon through a terrible crisis, caused by the destruction ...

Executive Summary

Recent news reports on racial minorities being shot and killed by the police, or by those taken into custody and are reported to have died while in that situation, pose a grim reminder that the relationship of law enforcement and the racial minorities in the United States have been one filled with tension and conflict, mistrust and suspicion, fear and force, and domination and struggle. This is not a civil rights position paper; rather, this is a research geared to proffer that the instance of encounters between racial minorities and the police have been generally characterized by conflict ...

According to Bastelaer (1997), there is no clear definition of a part time job. This is because definitions of part time job are based on either threshold hours or the assessment on the nature of the job, or a combination of the two. Further, threshold number of hours have not been specific, some consider the threshold number of hours to be thirty and others consider the threshold number of hours to be thirty five (Bastelaer 23).

On the other hand, part time work may be defined according to industrial instrument. In this case, part time work is defined as that work ...

Introduction

Developing countries of the world today are facing unprecedented challenges in attaining sustainable development. Many developing countries are plagued by issues such as poverty, population growth, terrorism, dearth of qualified teaching staff, and territorial conflicts. To find a solution to this, many economists have devised various strategies both at the macroeconomic and microeconomic levels. Many people around the world will tell you that fossil fuel is Saudi Arabia’s greatest natural resource, but they are wrong because the children are the greatest resource. An excellent education of Saudi Arabian children is the key to ...

Such topics are discussed in different articles but the ones I have ...

Socrates is popular for his shifting thoughts on Greek philosophical ideas about the nature of the universe. Philosophers before Socrates’ time also examined of the problems associated with human life. Nonetheless, Socrates was the first philosopher to analyze ethics as a science. In addition, Socrates looked at the principles of human life from a methodical and consistent perspective. Many critics note that Socrates influenced the expansion of Western philosophy and culture in many ways. In fact, a number of critics believe that Socrates was instrumental in his teachings and such thoughts impacted on the development of Christianity. Arguably, Socrates wrote nothing and ...

Overview

Public agencies have until recently not been engaging in succession planning. Succession planning is the process by which an organization plans for and replaces outgoing managers, executives and selected chief employees. Such employees initially held vital positions affecting the success of the organization, and preparing for succession is critical to the success of an organization in its present and future plans. The process of succession planning includes carrying out preparations of how the organization will select and recruit successors, the most effective way to handle changes between executives and how to build upon its successors (Todnem & Macleod, 2009).

With the media ever focused on shootings throughout the USA, which only seems to add to the fire that is the gun control debate. Shooting and even Mass shootings tear at the emotions of the populace, and the heat is on for someone to do something. The gun control debate is not new; however, many people are demanding action. Proponents of both sides of the argument tend to bring non-facts to the debate in order to persuade people to listen to their argument. Besides, the actual implication of the effectiveness of the gun control is still controversial. The American ...

Community policing

The police protect people and enforce laws. However, nowadays, in some communities, police officers do not consider protecting people to be the main task of their job. Instead, they abuse people, especially those with different skin color or religious views. Moreover, some of the police officers use their job to take bribes. In recent years, there have been several cases of such police officers’ misconduct. This thesis is aimed at examining whether community policing leads to less abuse police authority or not. The paper will be divided into two parts. The first part will be devoted to the issue ...

Introduction.

Everything we do has a limit. Limits are put to define the extent to which we can do certain things or even the extent to which we can move from a particular point. Boundaries are physical barriers which separate different areas. They are usually in the form of walls, roads, paths and so on. Therefore, maritime boundaries and limits are connected with the ownership of valuable resources and coastal state jurisdiction over foreign shipping. Inaccuracies and uncertainties over such sensitive issues are best avoided. There are numerous international disputes over limits and boundaries, some of which could endanger peace and security. ...

Introduction

In literary works, writers normally utilize characterization technique in revealing the personalities of their characters. This technique is categorized into direct and indirect characterization. In direct characterization technique, the writer usually makes statements that are direct about the traits of the characters. On the other hand, in indirect characterization, readers draw conclusions about the characters based on how such characters act, think, and look, in addition to what the other characters think about them. Both Walker and Maupassant utilize these techniques in “Everyday Use” and “The Necklace,” to bring out the characters of Dee and Mathilde respectively. This essay ...

Introduction

This paper seeks to show, as Owen (1994) believes, that peaceful regimes based on a liberalist democracy are more likely to secure and maintain a condition of “democratic peace” than regimes that are neither liberal nor democratic. However, as reported by Kahneman and Renshon (2007), even liberalist decision-makers have to be wary of advice offered by hawkish advisors, because the human mind has a natural bias towards the more aggressive solutions and to be unrealistically optimistic about the consequences of such decisions.

How Liberalism Produces Democratic Peace:

Owen (1994) reviews and supports the concept of “democratic peace” – the idea that wars between democratic nations are unlikely and ...

Abstract

Censorship has been a debatable issue for decades with critics viewing it as an infringement on the rights that have been enshrined in many constitutions of many countries; this is the main reason why the notion of censorship in any sector is met with extreme resistance; however, it is a part of history that those holding positions of power often use this idea to suppress what they feel are ideas that might lead to opposition or other fundamental ideas that might threaten their hold over the people; when it comes to literature it is important to consider the effect that this ...

Jack London succeeds in vividly illustrating the story he tells in “To Build a Fire”, as thru his writing he has the literary strength to paint the happenings and to draw the clear image of his characters and their adventures. Moreover, the strength of his style, the form and writing technique and structure empowers the content of this short story and this strength is an attribute of formalism (Dobie 33). London’s critics argue whether his writings adjust to formalism, comparing the strength of the content, versus the power of the literary art. This essay investigates whether Jack London’s “ ...

Sooner or later every person wonders what the meaning of life is. Often it happens when there are some troubles in life and when the person feels tired, but I prefer to think about it when everything suits me. I think that when you understand why you live, why your life was given to you, it becomes much easier to live with pleasure and to tale responsibility for your life. In this paper I want to describe my vision of the meaning of life and compare it to some other views on this problem.
For me the meaning ...

Child development psychologist Bruno Bettelheim once wrote that the true significance of folktales for children lies in their underlying, or “hidden,” meaning. Fairy tales pose “existential dilemmas,” and communicate either a solution or punishment that emphasizes some moral point, the reasoning out of which not only facilitates the expansion of imagination but helps develop rational and critical thinking skills (Zipes, p. 182). As such, “the fairy tale liberates the child’s subconscious so that he or she can work through conflicts and experiences which would otherwise be repressed” (Ibid). Simply put, they provide a means through which a child may begin to ...

Abstract

Nursing practice has been revolutionized over the last century with a growing demand for appropriate education and training. This desire has escalated towards nurses becoming specialists in intensive care, obstetrics, pediatrics, psychiatry, geriatrics, anesthetics and even clinical managers. The more diverse cases emerge; equally the need to specialize becomes eminent. As such, education plays a vital role in adequately addressing evaluation and intervention of the nursing process. Accuracy in assessment and appropriate preparation to administer techniques, greatly depend on the level of education among nursing service staff. Hence, the importance that every level be afforded full opportunities to deliver the quality ...
