Introduction

Weighing machines have long been used for measuring weights of various objects. The basic principle behind weight measurement is balancing of force due to gravity of an object with some known standard. You could easily find weight of small objects by using standard weighing balances having pair of pans i.e. one carrying the object to be weighed and the other is used to put loads of known weights until machine is balanced. This method cannot be applied on large scales involving heavy machinery, vehicles, or even humans. Another traditional method of weighing involves balancing force of an object due ...

Such a remarkable statement of Immanuel Kant,” one should always treat humanity, whether in oneself or in another, always as an end and never merely as a means. ” In addition, he argued, “the highest good is a good will.” The latter implies that to act from a good will is to act from duty. Kant’s formulation of the Categorical Imperative (CI) has a profound sense that hits every human core of thoughts. It would be necessary to exemplify this matter with the association with his approach in the business world to understand the profoundness of his formulated CI deeply. For ...

The United Nations World Commission on Environment and Development (1987) defined Sustainable Development as “the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” But Sustainable Development is more complex than this simplified definition. Sustainable Development has many issues concerning it such as development of underdeveloped nations, climate change, environmental damage, environmental regulation, addressing the problem of world poverty, population control, sustainable tourism, ecosphere preservation, urbanization, and conservation of earth’s resources. Sustainable Development is truly a challenge that is global in nature as it concerns the earth’s ...

I believe that a problem found in my exploratory essay regards Gay Marriage. Many people feel that it is a "should they or shouldn't they" topic. I believe that all people should be allowed "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness", as defined in the United States Constitution. Although this is stated in our Constitution, many people in this great nation have issues allowing two people of the same sex to have intimate relationships with one another. They use hate speech, isolating those who have essentially "come out of the closet" and can intimidate those who are ready to share their ...

Reflection 1: Reflect on the relevance for management practice of Lukes’ three dimensional model of power. Illustrate your points with suitable examples. According to Lukes, there are three fundamental faces of power. Each face of power offer something different to the individual who is trying to attain that power, and people in different positions use the different faces of power differently to ensure that they retain control within their own personal sphere. The first face of power is what happens when someone wins an argument. For instance, if a parent wins an argument against their child, they have the ...

In Samuel Beckett’s Company, he uses variations of the word “devise,” “deviser,” “device,” and “devising.” In this paper the use of these words, which are used by Beckett with some frequency will be analyzed. The words will be analyzed as per their meaning, and in how “meaning” fit the contextual elements of Beckett’s text. The paper will be argued from an etymological perspective, to investigate whether words have different forms of meaning, and how Becket may be playing with the meaning of words. Although Beckett bombards the text with formations of the word “devise” in a seemingly absurdist ...

Introduction

Heparin is a blood-thinner (anti-coagulant) used to prevent the formation of blood clots. Heparin is a frequently used in the prevention of blood clots in the veins, arteries and lungs. The drug is commonly administered through injection (intravenously) and as such administration of injection should be guided by proper clinical procedures to reduce pain and unwanted injuries resulting from wrong use of needle (Ives, 2007). As much as the use of clean needles during heparin injections is recommended, it ...

The theories of both Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill have played an important role in framing conceptions of modern philosophical theories. Although most modern philosophers have critiqued these theories, they are still important since they form the very basis of philosophical understanding and thought. This essay will summarize, reflect on and respond to the theories of Utilitarianism by John Stuart Mill as well as the Deontological theory by Immanuel Kant.

Utilitarianism

John Stuart Mill’s utilitarian thought is heavily characterized by classical liberalism and positivism and is a ‘consequentialist’ theory. The utilitarian theory is a principle which believes that a right or ...

Categorical imperative is the key concept to Kant’s deontological moral philosophy. By definition, in critical philosophy, the categorical imperative establishes an unconditional and an absolute necessity that that has no exceptions, and it is universally justified. In addition to the above, categorical imperative is vindicated as an end to itself, and not a means to some supplementary end. Apparently, Kant attaches lots of significances to the idiom “categorical imperative the two words that were formulated to make up the concept have implications. Based on Kant’s notions, human beings are a special part of the creation, derived from the ...

More research indicates that the amounts of juice extracted from such Musa Cavendish (banana pseudostem) have the potential of being processed in the form of isotonic drink resulting from the presence of high mineral content like ...

Question One: why it is difficult to distinguish between clinical-decision making errors solely due to intuitive judgment or analytical judgment

It is often difficult to distinguish between clinical decision making errors solely due to intuitive judgment or analytical judgment. The reason is because both systems; that is the analytical and intuitive systems act in tandem most of the time when making judgment. From a functional view point, reasoning commences intuitively. This implies that one interprets environmental information precociously at first. The intuitive system is activated automatically and unconsciously. This automated processing o the environmental information will give rise to one or more solutions from the working memory. The activation of the analytical reasoning will confirm or invalidate the relevance of ...

Abstract

Stress is a dynamic and interactional process involving intricate body systems with formulations and operationalisation of the components at different levels(1).There is growing evidence that there is a positive correlation between emotional stress and oral health. As will be demonstrated from the literature reviewed in this paper emotional stress can be implicated in oral problems such as ulcerative conditions, inflammatory conditions, dental decay, TMD, RAS and others that continue to be linked to stress. Stress has also been found to aggravate some oral conditions such as oral lichen planus. In some of these conditions the precise mechanisms by which ...
