Essays on Elimination

Abstract

This experiment involved alkene preparation by alcohol dehydration (water elimination) in the presence of an acid catalyst. Elimination, combination, rearrangement and substitution are the basic types of chemical reactions known in organic chemistry. Alcohol dehydration is an important transformation that leads to the yield of alkene and it is an example of an elimination reaction. Dehydration is a process that involves the elimination reaction of an alcohol. There is a loss of H from one carbon and OH from adjacent carbon, hence, resulting in a water molecule removal that results in the formation of alkyne or alkene. When an ...

Re: Prison Rape Elimination Act and the County Jail Status: Confidential/Attorney-Client Privilege In response to growing concerns about the underreported and little understood epidemic of rape and sexual abuse in American confinement facilities, in 2003 Congress unanimously passed the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA). PREA was enacted to detect, respond to, and eliminate sexual abuse during incarceration in a prison. In Congress’ analysis rape is and should never be considered punishment for a crime. In order to accomplish its goals, PREA mandated the establishment of the National Prison Rape Elimination Commission (NPREC). The NPREC was tasked with two duties, ...

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to provide practical details in using health care research resources effectively and the need of public health partnerships. Global health problems require global solutions based on public–private partnerships. With limited financial resources, complex behavioral problems, as well as reduced state responsibilities, have led the organizations to realize the importance of public health partnerships to achieve the long-term goals, and shoulder the broader view of social responsibility.

Cuts for Medicaid are a feature of the current administration’s efforts to reduce the budget deficit based on the rationale that spending for health entitlement programs will stretch the federal budget beyond its limits. This is because increased longevity is raising the number of the aged population while a rise in the poor is increasing the number of those eligible (Abramsky, 2011). Budget cuts mean that some services would need to go. As a manager of a county clinic servicing Medicaid clients, it is my job to make the decisions as to which services would be eliminated. Optimal ...

Introduction

Cosmetic surgery is typically performed to accurate a physical oddity or to improve an otherwise usual physical characteristic and, so, recover a person's look. It's a tremendously wide field that can propose reconstructive surgical procedure for a patient following a destructive burn or additional physical disturbance, yet may also be accustomed to flat out wrinkles, make bigger breasts, or reshape the nose. In the recent past, this was restricted only to the surgery that it was completely essential to the healthiness and happiness of that patient, for example skin-grafting for solemn burns, repairing a busted jaw or nose, reconstructing ...

The method of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) focus on the exploitation from the heat contained in deep warm rocks associated with restricted penetrability. Although that particular extraction is just feasible when the reservoir penetrability is actually sufficient to make sure a liquid circulation in between injection as well as production water springs. Financial utilization associated with enhanced geothermal systems has to do with normal or even induced nutrient precipitation as well as associated reduction in permeability from those methods even though it might inhibit liquid flow within well casings or even in rocky fractures as well as therefore decrease ...

All domain trust relationships have two domains: the trusted domain and the trusting domain. The types of trust include Forest, Realm, External, and Shortcut (Gibson, 2001). For the purposes of this paper on Quality Corporation (Quality.ad) and Crescent Inc. (Crescent.ad), these considerations regard the Forest Type domains. There are several considerations in the establishment of trust relationships between domains. The first is the characterization of the trust into one of these four categories; ...

Since creation, the world has portrayed men as superior than women. The world is ruled by a patriarchal system where women are discriminated against and justices and fairness on gender aspects is not practiced. Women are portrayed as a weaker gender than men and therefore all the policies formulated look at women as a minority group (Healey, 23). This has been the reality in the history of mankind since the time of creation. Despite their being many interventions by governments and non-government organizations, there is a big gap between men and women that need to be addressed. I lament ...

Abstract

Oxidation is a common problem in olive oil due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acid, this leads to nutritional losses and quality degradation, especially under microwave heating. A number of studies have been done to add natural antioxidants to reduce oxidation. This project examines the possible application of olive leaves to reduce or inhibit olive oil oxidation under microwave heating. Olive leaves were able to increase the total polyphenol content as well as reducing the peroxide value in olive oil. However, the microwave heating caused severe quality degradation (increasing peroxide value and reducing total polyphenol) especially after ...

Humanitarians differ with the government on the policy regarding targeted killings. Their argument is that it is an option which is repugnant to the principle of justice and morality. The right to life is a universal declaration which was consented to by all member states of the UN during its inception after the Second World War. Therefore the United States, they argue should be bound by its commitment to preserving human rights in the world by abandoning the strategy of targeted killings of suspected high profile members of terrorists organizations. It is true that the United States should champion ...

Discrimination as a general term is informed by different aspects. Often, the definition depends on what the user of the term intends to convey to the audience. In this context, discrimination can be defined as the differential treatment of a person or group of persons merely on the ground of their feature, sex, colour, creed, origin, nationality, among other factors. Discrimination, however, manifests in a negative way. In this regard, the person treated differently is essentially disfavoured over the other persons even though naturally he or she is entitled to the same treatment or in some cases even better ...

With the notion of Nation-States, nobility devised certain rules that could be respected by all others in order to avoid conflicts between them.

Waste generation is a major problem global problem, as the world’s population rises, the quantity of domestic and industrial waste increases. The main strategy employed in waste management is the 3R approach of reduction, reuse and recycling. Environmental experts have suggested the inclusion of recovery to create a 4R strategic approach to waste management (Yearley, 2005a, p 7). The recovery of energy from wastes is a new approach to waste management that maximizes the energy derived from waste and minimizes the final quantity of waste disposed. More needs to be done to find safer approaches to strategic waste ...

Political and Legal Influences regarding Nanotechnology in Medicine

Nanotechnology can be described as the making of functional objects, systems and devices by controlling matter on the length scale of the nanometer and using new trends and properties on the length scale (Basavaraj, 2012). Nanotechnology has gained use in different medical areas like cardiovascular medicine and oncology, due to the need for the growth of new medicines, using the innate nanoscale roles of the biological elements of living cells (Basavaraj, 2012). However, use of nanotechnology in medicine faces many legal and political issues, which forms the theme of discussion, in this study.

While the formation of government has been for protection of human rights and equal distribution of resources, there are negative notions about functions of the government. The negative notions are that governments are formed because of the desire to control others through manipulation and threat, and to protect a certain class of people. However, since society is more civilized today through advanced education, it can be argued that society can function without supervision from government. Furthermore, without supervision, humans can be prosperous and peaceful if government is eliminated altogether. This fact is reinforced by Einstein who said that “a ...
