Introduction

One of the most significant topics of the Middle East history that is considered to be Arab cultural awakening is undoubtedly Arab nationalism. On the one hand, it gathered strength and coherence during and after the First World War. On the other hand, little light is actually shed on that recent phenomenon. A lot of scholars may even get into a mess in defining Arabs, as well as determining what is meant by Arab nationalism. However, taking into consideration the fact that the twenty-first century is characterized by a considerable political activeness, much attention should be paid to Arabs ...

Nurses play a vital role in healthcare by providing quality patient care that guarantees better patient outcomes. However, the nursing profession is faced with the challenge of shortage of nurses due to the high number of people seeking patient care as well as the increasing aging population with chronic illnesses in the United States. Therefore, the current healthcare environment with high demand for nursing care stretches nurses to greatest limits. As result, nurses have to work effectively with the assistive employees through delegation in order to meet the high demands of quality care using the few available nurses (National ...

No school operates without a curriculum. Fundamentally, aA curriculum is an essential part of the education system (Bradford, Kenneth, & Helen, 2017). A well-set curriculum contributes enormously to a good education. Additionally, it eases the learning process for the teachers and the learners. However, various schools have various curriculums set by various people in diverse ways. Nevertheless, quality education remains the core purpose of all the curriculums in education institutions (Armstrong, 2006). This paper is oriented towards comparing curriculums of different states, districts, and schools to the research of the best practice. Most successful schools are those that comply with ...

Romania is the forty-sixth largest economy globally and ranked thirty-eighth in the most complex economy category based on the ECI (economic complexity index). The country has however faced a perpetual trade deficit (Steers, 456-461). Total exports into the country in 2009, for instance, amounted to $49.41 billion whereas the imports were $76.2 billion. In 2014 also, according to the ECI, Romania had an export of $71.4billion compared to $75.6 billion imports.

Software development in the modern era requires a comprehensive framework. The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is such a framework that helps in pursuing such IT projects and mange such projects. There are a number of models that exist for the Software Development Life Cycle. One such model is ...

A bicameral parliament is a system of the legislative branch of the government made up of two complimentary houses that work together to pass laws. This system of parliament ensures that both the citizens and the government are adequately represented in the house and that sufficient consultations are made before any bills are passed into laws. In the case of the United States, the Senate embodies the interests of the state whereas the House of Representatives exemplifies the views of the country population as a whole (Moran 1895). The modes of qualification into these houses vary from one nation ...

The contemporary situation in the U.S. regarding its foreign policy is still unknown. By and large, the latter’s foundations for the next four years will be defined by the President through his behavior on the international arena and the relevant orders. However, the stable to some extent foreign policy of the United States can be different from the previous years. In fact, the worries have been expressed throughout the presidential campaign, as two adverse points of view were supported. One of them was to remain the supporter of NATO, alien for all the friendly states of Europe, East ...

In the book, Edward Weisband and Courtney Thomas have discussed political culture, its application as well as the different aspects related to it. According to the authors, a political culture refers to all the factors that enable the thriving of a particular political system. In fact, the practices, the values, the beliefs, and the shared systems, all contribute to the formation of a political system that defines an administration. In as much as most people believe that such a culture is naturally formed, this notion is not true because it takes many years to develop fully and take strong ...

Aboriginal peoples and communities are among the first inhabitants of Canada and are thus considered as one of the founders of Canada. Aboriginal peoples already had legal systems and governance structures even before European settlers arrived in Canada. With the advent of European settlers, Aboriginal peoples were forced to either assimilate to the foreign systems and culture or ignore the immigrants and keep their culture. The latter, however, resulted in conflicts between the European settlers and the local Aboriginal communities. Such conflicts were settled through the signature treaties. However, the signing of the agreements did not guarantee that the ...

Introduction

Engineering profession in Canada is self-regulated while in the U.S. it is state-regulated. However, there has been a long-standing debate on whether self-regulation in the engineering profession in Canada has served the public interest in a similar way as the U.S. and other state-regulated regimes. Before engineering was made a self-regulated profession in Canada, there were other professions like medicine and law which were being self-regulated. However, these self-regulated fields had been marred with numerous scandals because they were putting their interests before those of the public. They would increase the cost of professional services and engage in professional ...

Introduction

A comparison of engineering licensure and regulation in the United States and Canada reveal critical differences between the two countries. Nonetheless, the licensure and regulation between the two countries converge at the point where government intervention in the profession offer some level of autonomy for engineers in their duty to promote public welfare and consumer protection. It has to be noted that privileges given to engineers in Canada present tremendous responsibility to the players. Besides, state regulation and licensure in the United States gives the state the watchdog powers to oversee the operations of individual engineers and corporate entities ...

Introduction

It is usually established under a variety of jurisdictions that aim at promoting the welfare of the public. Licensure is the process under which engineers receive authorization to practice as well as provide professional engineering services to people [5]. Just like any other profession, engineering is usually protected by the law under some jurisdictions. In the United States, the practice of architecture is often governed by individual states.

The rise in imprisonment in America over the past years has risen at an alarming rate. The United States of America prison population has increased from about three hundred thousand inmates in the 1970’s to over one million inmates in recent years. Statistics show that America has the highest number of inmates in the world (Pfaff 173).The so-called “war on drugs ” which attracted long prison sentences has acted as a major factor contributing to the increase in the prison population (Golembeski 1702). Between the years 2003 and 2010, the prison population rate in the state of Georgia ...

The main objective of any health care system is to provide patient care with desirable patient outcomes. Simply put, a health care system strives to promote well-being and heath status of all human beings. It is also important to note that most aspects of the healthcare focus on prevention and management of pain among patients because freedom from pain is an essential dimension of health. Additionally, pain among patients is a multidimensional phenomenon that requires a broad, integrated and a comprehensive care model (Glare et al., 2014). Many studies that have been carried out by various scholars on health ...

1. Exercising regularly is good for health. However, one should not be erratic about it i.e. one should have a plan and stick to it. Fitness also includes the food intake. One should have a balanced diet that gives all nutrients in the correct proportion. Exercise and food together lead to a healthy body. At times an overweight person will not be prepared to expose himself to others in a fitness centre. However, one should realise that it is to change this very situation that one need to keep oneself fit. As a result, one becomes more confident about ...

ABSTRACT As telemedicine is used throughout the rural parts of Africa, there are many professionals and patients who find the entire process very beneficial because there is an allowance for a decrease in transmission of highly contagious diseases such as MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). If there are clinics that are found in locations surrounding rural Africa, there are strong concerns that patients will be able to transmit their diseases to other people who are otherwise healthy. With the use of telemedicine, the patients and the health care providers can see each other through a confined space and there is ...

INTRODUCTION

It is the belief of most people that when stronger law enforcements are applied, it will help in getting the drugs off the market, thereby making the streets to become safe. However, the evidence that exists with the Drug Abuse Council challenges this belief. The council confirmed that an increase in the price of one bag of street heroin in any given month from $7 to $9, there would be an increase in the number of revenue-raising crimes from 11,000 per month to 12,000 per month due to heroin trade alone (Friedman 1).

In essence, a moral dilemma is a conflict, whereby an individual is faced with a situation that demands a person to act based on moral reasons. My uncle encountered a moral dilemma in his profession, which challenged his morality. As the head of the student council in a local high school, he faced a difficult decision concerning awarding marks to a grade twelve girl in her final exam before graduating. The student was bright and had obtained A’s throughout her academic years. More so, it was expected that she was an honor student. However, at the ...

Should U.S. Provide Free Healthcare Coverage For All? Should U.S. Provide Free Healthcare Coverage For All? The healthcare system is an important factor in the success of any country. It is an engine for innovation, as it disseminates life-enhancing treatments for the citizens to have better health. The healthcare system can provide enormous benefits to its citizens. With continuous consumption of healthcare services by individuals comes a growing demand for healthcare services that provide happiness and satisfaction to people. For this, patient satisfaction has been labeled as “a complimentary measure of healthcare quality” (Browne et al., 2010, p.921). In ...

Introduction

The European Union is the result of the flow of economic integration in the world. It was created in 1958 and became a powerful economic group. Within the framework of the Union, the benefits of mutual trade are established, the general economic policy is carried out, and restrictions on the movement of goods, capital, and labor are constantly removed (Krugman, Obstfeld, and Melitz, 2014). The creation of the EU was due primarily to the fact that in Western Europe after the Second World War, the contradiction between the international character of modern production and the narrow national and state ...

A Review of the Literature

If asked to name the “national dish of Britain,” the average person is likely to say, “there is nothing more British than fish and chips,” but he or she might be wrong as it all depends on the criteria used to determine the national dish (Castelow, 2013). If popularity is the yardstick, then fish and chips would miss the mark, since each year in the UK it is outsold by hamburgers, fried chicken, pizza, and Indian and Chinese food (Alexander, 2009). And while this is true, fish and chips still play a vital role in the economic success of ...

The healthcare system is currently undergoing a series of transformations that are affecting all the aspects of care. These transformations have fuelled the identification of the important role of nurses in healthcare. In the past, nurses have been sidelined as assistants to physicians, rather than partners in care with other health care professionals (The National Academies Press, 2010). A report by the IOM and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation revealed that if the nurses are allowed to practice to the full extent of their training and expertise, they could offer pertinent expertise needed to sustain the current changes in ...

National Security Council

Colleagues, good morning and welcome to the White House! The fact that you are here today already speaks highly of you all, considering the demanding education requirements, professional skills and personal integrity required to serve in this office. My name is Keith Kellogg, a retired Army Lt. Gen. I was recently appointed as chief of staff and executive secretary of the National Security Council. You may have seen my name in media headlines branding me as the top spy and the right hand of the National Security Adviser to the President (Bender, 2016). The realities are slightly different. As ...

The Catholic Reformation was the answer to the Protestant Reformation of Martin Luther, who had weakened the Church. It denotes the period of Catholic resurgence from the pontificate of Pope Pius IV in 1560 to the end of the Thirty Years' War in 1648.

Pope Pius IV worked hard on four issues:

• Doctrine. • Ecclesiastical restructuring, with the foundation of seminars. • Modification of religious orders, returning them to their spiritual origins. • Vigilance of spiritual movements, focusing on the pious life and a personal relationship with Christ.

The model of assimilation refers to a group of people integrating into a new culture assimilating its host's cultural elements such as language and customs, losing some or almost all of its original cultural elements. An example of this model is the case of Argentina which has open immigration policies and received a growing number of Chinese. These integrated in such a way that they have assimilated their hosting language, Spanish and the way of Argentinian living, doing business, and social life. The first generation of immigrants continues speaking their language. However, they left behind many of their cultural ...

Lord Gardiner’s statement is a wonderful example of legislators recognizing that precedent may stifle the appropriate outcome in a legal dispute. Comparisons can be made between other Western countries; for example, the US Supreme Court has reversed precedent that it set itself decades prior, such as the landmark case Brown v. Board of Education. Just like these countries, Lord Gardiner believed that Britain should not limit itself to decisions based solely on decisions in the past because the modern day situations that arise often require a more complex and systematic methodology for determining justice. In addition, but not ...

Introduction

Historically, healthcare professional practiced in communities where they shared the same culture with those who seek various services. As such, this made it easy for the provision of health care at both individual and institutional levels. With the increase in population diversity in the nation as well as other regions in the world, health care provision has been affected by cultural and social factors that arise with the diversity in population composition (Marshall, 2005). In realization of this issue, it is imperative that health care professionals and institutions develop cultural competency. In this light, this paper will discuss issues ...

There has been increasing awareness of the role of waste in the production of greenhouse gas emissions and its impacts on climate change. Diminishing natural resources has led to the recognition that what is discarded as waste has the potential to be reused as resources. Governmental legislation on prohibiting toxic materials and prevention and control of the volume of waste has helped in decreasing adverse environmental effects. There is a growing public awareness about waste prevention and its beneficial effects. The society has to replace the linear model of extract-produce-consume-dispose to closed Loop's approach of resource recovery and waste ...

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) involves peripheral circulation, the brain, and the heart. The disease is a primary health issue in many countries around the world (Sawhney, et al., 2012). CVD develops through complex processes involving novel risk markers and common risk factors. Decades of research have demonstrated that a sibling’s or parent’s family history is linked to the development of atherosclerotic CVD (Gupta et al., 2013; Nelson, 2013; Imes and Lewis, 2014), which manifests as peripheral arterial disorder, stroke, and coronary heart disorder (CHD). Various Mendelian disorders have also been shown to contribute to atherosclerotic CVD. Although ...

Summary of Ethical Dilemma: Low Nurse-Patient Ratio

There is an existing nursing shortage in America today primarily because of the increasing number of patients in the aging population, frequency of chronic diseases, an aging workforce, and the limited number of Americans taking up Nursing education to cover the growing needs for the profession. The nursing field belongs to the group of fastest-growing careers not only in America, but in other countries as well. However, the demand surpasses the supply of nurses, which results in high nurse to patient ratio. As a consequence, quality care that patients supposedly should receive from the medical industry suffers. Studies reveal ...

While sustainable development means meeting the needs of the present and future generations, and a focus on prevention of environmental degradation, several factors influence the attainment of these goals, specifically culture and organizations. Sustainable development as a concept first appeared in the Brundtland Report of the World Commission on Economic Development (Buchanan 29). The Brundtland Commission was established in 1985 to address environmental problems due to economic development. Atmospheric pollution, climate change and global warming, accumulated wetlands, decreased freshwater quality, topsoil degradation, endangered species of animals and fishes, and forest degradation were environmental concerns discussed in the Brundtland Commission ( ...

Introduction

The United Nations Security Council to me is like a big whale that lay deep in the ocean for a very long time only to wake up in the recent years sending huge waves across the sea that contains many world nations under the UN. In the recent years, the United Nations Security Council has triggered the legal science (Bashir & Lim, 2013). However, the United Nations body remained in its place with the same powers as initially intended but with the powers compromised by some nations that took permanent membership in the council. As such, the body’s aim ...

Elements of a Valid Contract

A contract is essentially a meeting of minds, which may only occur when the following five elements are present: an offer, an acceptance of the offer, an intention to form a binding contract, a consideration, and capacity. An offer represents an intimation of the willingness to enter a contract on given terms, and must be made with the intention to be binding upon acceptance. It must be definite and certain, such that it will not necessitate further negotiations prior to acceptance (Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Co., 1893).

Markets work as the most efficient way to allocate scarce resources for which there are alternative uses. This is the theme carried through Thomas Sowell’s Basic Economics. And this is the point that Becker and Elias offer in their Wall Street Journal article. They make the case that people are literally dying from a lack of organs that they need to survive. And they make the point that it is especially true in the case of kidneys. Live donors can survive perfectly well with one kidney. Such donations are becoming common, but usually among family ...

According to the National Research Council, it is posited that any project can never be risk-proof, and efforts should be enforced to mitigate the same. In its 2005 publication titled The Owner's Role in Project Risk Management, it maintains that the amount of uncertainty in any given project is normally relatively high. Further, the adversity involved in some of the pertinent project risks can be so great such that it is literally impossible to design risk mitigation strategies at the planning stage of a project. In the case where a vendor is underperforming, there is the likelihood of occurrence ...

Although all federal systems of government shares a three-level government system, consisting of the federal, state/provincial, and local governments, the functions of these governmental levels, particularly that of the local government, can vary widely as adopted in various federations around the world (Steytler, 2005), such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany, and South Africa, and as these government are transforming from the nation state into the market state (Treverton, 2005).
