Post-stroke dysphagia, a potentially fatal complication, affects an estimated 23-50% of all stroke survivors. It is associated with a seven fold increase in the risk for aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration pneumonia increases the catabolic demands of the body and in the settings of impaired swallowing leads to a vicious cycle of malnutrition, dehydration, and further infections (Shaker & Geenen, 2011). Dysphagia affects a significant number of patients with hemispheric stroke which is the main subtype of ischemic stroke in the general population (Kumar et al., 2011). The functions of swallowing are subserved by a vast brain network. The inferior peri-rolandic sensorimotor ...

The current theory regarding the evolution of the earth’s ocean is that water is present during the formation of the earth. Most of the discovered materials which was more than 4 billion years old also contained evidences of the present of water (Genda, 2016). Some scientists suggest that the water on earth emerged in the surface when steam was released in the volcanoes. Additional water emerged in the surface of the earth coming from meteorites and comets during the formation of the earth. The continuous addition of water from volcanoes and meteorites or comets led to the formation ...

Psychology: Nature vs. Nurture Essay

Language constitutes an essential characteristic of human beings and is regarded as a primary form of communication between individuals. The role of nature and nurture in language acquisition among young children has been a continuous debate in developmental sciences, education, and social sciences like sociology and psychology. This issue is not only conflicting but also complementary. It has laid a foundation for better understanding of how biological and environmental factors interact to influence language development in children (Yusa et al. 2011). Available research shows that there is no clear pattern of the causes and effects associated with human cognition ...

The brain is the most important organ in the human body since it is the one responsible for the interpretation of senses, intelligence, controlling behavior and movement. However, most of the neuroscientists have been unable to conclusively determining the relationship between the various parts of the brain and the outward behavior. For instance, many neurosurgeons have used studies on the preferred hand in the prediction of the dominant part of the cerebral hemisphere. According to Weiten and McCann (2013), cerebral hemispheres are identical in appearance. However, they differ significantly in terms of the structure and functions. The brain lateralization ...

The General Assembly of the United Nations has stated that “Changes to the climate, brought about by increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, will thus lead to changes in the oceans, including sea-level rise and ocean acidification, which will put marine ecosystems and coastal communities at risk. Most of these changes can be attributed to human activities and will negatively affect the animal inhabitants of the marine environment. Some effects of global warming on marine animals include changes in distribution, reduction of habitats and reductions in diversity and sex ratios. In the last hundred years, the rate ...

Introduction

The articles address aspects of terror acts carried out by both insurgents and regimes to engage each other. The historiographical essay is also important in using historical accounts from articles to discuss the factors that contributed to success of revolutionary wars in nations such as Cuba and Nicaragua. The approach taken by the essay is chronologically reviewing by year of publication, what different authors wrote on the ...

Global warming is the excess greenhouse effect caused by various factors that rise earth’s temperature beyond an optimum level, causing adverse impacts to the biosphere. Earth’s temperature is determined by the amount of solar radiation received from sun, radiation reflected or absorbed by various gases in the atmosphere as well as various surface features such as snow, water bodies, built environment etc. (US Environmental Protection Agency, 2016). Natural as well as anthropogenic factors contribute to global warming and associated climate change.

Writing Assignment

Which school of psychology do you agree with most? In your paper (at least 5, well-written sentences), provide 3 reasons WHY you agree with it the most. I agree most with the psychodynamic perspective among the schools of psychology. The school is oriented in believing that the human behavior is influenced by the different mental conflicts that are locked in the sub-conscience. The school of thought is more convincing because of the fact that the personality of an individual is inside the individual and is controlled by the interaction between the superego, the ego, and the id. Additionally, the ...

The Cuban missile crisis of 1962 has become a pivotal event in the history of the United States since 1929. During 13 days of the crisis, the world balanced on the brink of the wide-scale nuclear war and observed the development of this conflict with bated breath. In order to convince the reader how critical this moment was for the history and future of the world, I will describe the background and development of this event and analyze the actions of both sides of the crisis: the USA and the Soviet Union.

Decolonization can be defined as the act of a nation gaining independence from another country that had established authority over it. Decolonization was not in any way a new phenomenon following the Second World War; countries were progressively gaining independence from their colonial masters. However, it was the Second World War that created the greatest drive towards decolonization, which significantly altered global history. The mass drive for decolonization was aided by several primary factors among them changes in the international distribution of power and growing calls for national self-determination. There was certainly no common decolonization process; it took various ...

Although I had had several holidays in Western cities like London, Paris, New York and Berlin, I had never got any opportunity to visit a city in the Eastern Hemisphere. I had always been enthusiastic to have fabulous time in major cities of the world in the Eastern Hemisphere like Tokyo. I felt most enthusiastic about Tokyo because it is considered the capital of the Eastern Hemisphere. Tokyo is one of Japan’s 47 prefectures, and it functions as both the largest city and the capital of Japan. During the last summer, I decided to have an 11 day ...

Understanding the intrigues of an international system is as complex as understanding the factors that have influenced its evolution over time. However, it is clear that the international system underwent its most profound changes in the periods of the First and Second World Wars. The stack difference in international relations between the post war period and before the war can only be illustrated by having a detailed overview of the situation after the First World War; which set the stage for the Second World War, and the ensuing international system afterwards. In fact, it would not be an overstatement ...

Immigration policy in the U.S has evolved over the years, yet it has failed to address pertinent issues with regard to immigration, especially illegal immigration, which has continued to rise; a new policy approach would be necessary if the problems bedeviling immigration are to be addressed. America’s immigration policy has over the decades been a major public policy issue, especially during the peaks of election cycles. The immigration policy has by no means been harmonized in the country’s history. As a testament to this, the purview of immigration policy has more often than not been left to ...

While most people are familiar with a number of leading theorists in psychoanalysis, particularly Sigmund Freud, and possibly Adler and Jung, most people would not be familiar with Karen Horney, considered to be the “fist psychoanalytic feminist” (Hergenhahn & Henley 525). Horney disagreed with several concepts introduced by Freud, especially his focus on unconscious sexual motivation and the division of the self into 3 parts: id, ego, and superego. She believed that social experiences had a greater influence on the creation of self. During the Depression, she found that her clients’ problems were caused by unemployment and the inability to ...

This myth is very popular. It is not surprised that I used to believe in the myth about left and right brains. It seems to me that almost all my friends, relatives, acquaintances believe in the idea that people who have more developed right hemisphere are more talented, creative and even genius. I do not remember when I learned this myth the first time, but I know that even some of my school teachers hold this myth. I used to believe that left-handers are very special or that to be left-hander is better than to be a right-hander. One ...

Quite often, America's entry into World War Two has been attributed to the Pearl Harbor attack by Japan in 1941. While that is the case, the background to Japan's attack is what drew America into the war with the Pearl Harbor attack being a mere pretext. From the onset of the war, America's policy was to maintain neutrality as envisaged by the new Neutrality Act of 1937 (Chambers, 100). By default, the Neutrality Act served to embolden Germany's quest for domination of Europe. That is because America's non-involvement made it easier for Germany to attack France and Britain. America's ...

Mission Statement

I will ensure all the personnel are comfortable to increase their productivity. The human brain is a complicated piece of creation. If a person has to think then, they utilize the left hemisphere while actions based on emotions and instincts are right hemisphere based. For an idea to be created, it has to be formed in the brain. There is an argument that some people are more right brained, and others are left brained. The left brain is associated with the ability to provide speech while the right is non-lingual (Miller & Miller). The left side of the brain is ...

1. What is the potential impact of supersonic transports (SSTs) on the ozone layer? An alarming ozone loss has been reported in the past decades, and studies showed that this global problem is attributed largely to human activities. Advancement in technology resulted in the development of high-speed air transport that are economically competitive compared to other forms of aircrafts. There is, however, the associated risk that supersonic transports can impact in the destruction of the ozone layer due to the large amount of atmospheric pollution that it emits. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology carried a study on the possible ...

20.2 Albert Beveridge, "The March of the Flag" (1898) 1. How does Beveridge characterize America's proper role in the world? He characterizes America as a land that can feed and clothe the whole world. He portrays America as a parent to the other nations of the world. In his description of America in relation to the world he also explains the nature of the people in the country as people from the most masterful blood of history. Also under religious background he mentions that the people in America are hand chosen by God. All these references indicate the superior ...

Modern astronomy

There were four main contributors to modern astronomy: Sir Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei, and Tycho Brahe. Brahe advocated for the new standards for having a more precise observation even though he did not personally believe in the view of heliocentric. All of his contributions were huge for astronomy because he was able to create new instruments along with being able to calibrate them. He would check the accuracy of his instruments on a regular basis so it helped him to revolutionize instruments for astronomy. Kepler was an assistant for Brahe until he died in 1601. This helped ...

Introduction

Seasons are caused by tilting of the earth around its navigational plane known as the orbit around the sun. Climate change involves the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. When the earth is in the Southern and Northern hemisphere means that the season is at summer. Changes in the tilt of the earth lead to changes in the severity of the seasons, for example when there is more tilt leads to more severe seasons including warmer summers and colder winter and when the tilt ...

Analysis and Comparison of two Climate Change films: “The Day After Tomorrow” and “Beasts of the Southern Wild”

“The Day After Tomorrow (TDAT)” refers to an American climate change film that was directed by Emmerich Roland in 2004. The film focuses on the disasters caused by global warming. “The contest over global warming is a challenge for the referee because it's a tag-team match, a real free-for-all” (Al Gore, 2011 p.2).In the movie, the weather scientist Dennis Quaid tries to warn people on the issue of climate change, but he fails. Quaid finds themselves horrified after finding out that all their predictions about global warming were coming true faster than they could imagine. According to the ...

When talking about healthcare in Haiti, it is impossible to ignore the forty-five-second earthquake that decimated the hospitals and clinics in Haitian Capital to rubbles. The calamity reverted all the advancements gained back to the medical stone age. Even though Haiti did not have modern medical facilities and enough health care practitioners, the quake destroyed all the health care infrastructure that was already available; transport network, water and sanitation systems and electricity, thus, shutting down the delivery of health care services. Haiti is a country trapped in the medical backwater. Close to 80% of the country’s population live ...

My name is Id Number. The following is a review of an article titled “Making Management Decisions: The Role of Intuition and Emotion” by Herbert A. Simon. In the article, Herbert discusses two forms of decision-making that have been neglected. He illustrates the use of intuition and interpersonal interactions by managers in the decision-making process. The use of intuition in analysis and decision making by managers is particularly interesting, given the fact that intuitive or judgmental decision-making would be considered irrational or unreasonable by most people. According to Herbert (57), executives and other management professionals, unlike scientists, are likely ...

In the journal article, “Cultural and visual perception: Does perceptual inference depend on culture?” researchers questioned how culture affects the way we interpret what we see (Ishii, Tsukasaki, & Kitayama). Specifically, researchers wondered how culture affected how individuals interpret pieces of a picture. Researchers hypothesized that American participants would focus on precise, detailed parts of the image while Japanese individuals were able to interpret the entire picture. In the first part of the study, it was found that Americans were better at interpreting two part-cue conditions as compared to the Japanese population. Furthermore, it was found that neither group of ...

What are the main data sources for GIS? Do some research and try to list Canadian sources (with their web addresses) for road data. Geographical Information System or GIS is a database system that have the capacity of analyzing spatially referenced data (ESRI). Any data with spatial attributes can be a source of GIS. Several processes in GIS are encoding, storage, processing and display of digitized maps (Understanding GIS). Some of the Canadian websites that share free data are the Canadian GIS and Geomatics, ESRI Canada, National Resources Canada, GeoBase, GeoGratis, and some other Canadian websites that offer open ...

Ans1: Growth is defined as the increase in size and mass of a particular organism over a period of time. It is measured in terms of biomass (mass of the organic material). An organism grows by mitosis. Growth stops after certain age of the organism. Growth is quantitative and measured by taking the measurement of height, weight, size and shape of body organs like brain, etc . Development is defined as the process of cells differentiation which helps in the development of the body. It adds complexities to the body (such as organ development).

Hurricanes

Almost every year in the United States, along the Atlantic coast and the Gulf of Mexico, as well as in Hawaii, there are lots of hurricanes. The states of Texas, Louisiana, Florida and North Carolina are particularly at risk. The season of hurricanes lasts from early June to late November. There is a certain logic, why this period is the most dangerous. The strength and the duration of the storm depend on the temperature of the water in the ocean: if the degree is higher, the hurricane is stronger (it is proved that that the hurricane is amplified by ...

Stroke is described as brain function loss arising from a disturbance of brain blood supply. Being a broad term, specific types of strokes are named according to the cause. For example, there are two main types of stroke. One is the hemorrhagic stroke and second one is the most common ischemic stroke. Sarah suffered from hemorrhagic stroke as her symptoms indicated. Hemorrhagic stroke can be understood well when the mechanism of activities leading to an attack are described. This kind of stroke arises when blood accumulates in the brain tissue surrounding a ruptured vessel. The blood causes pressure which can lead to ...

There is a relationship between volcanic eruption and the climate of a place. After the eruption, the poisonous sulphur dioxide which is emitted out as a volcanic product, reacts and get oxidized to form sulphate aerosols in the stratosphere, hence affecting the climate adversely (Forster 2007). Volcanic ashes and particles having diameter larger than 2 um also affects the atmosphere. According to Ramaswamy (1996), ozone depletion results when the volcanic aerosols react with the balanced chemistry in the stratosphere. Mid and high latitudes volcanic eruptions create drastic climatic changes. The aerosols here retain over the hemisphere and cause climate to change. For ...

The United States government behaves as an impe5ral institution in the attribute that the agenda and the rationale of capitalism are clearly valued. At the same time, the adherence to capitalism has wider implications. This is due to the fact, that the nations are constructions of specific people. The states that are within the nations are reflective of specific philosophies and interests. The states are biased toward male domination. This infers that men compose the majority of the power positions in the government and the state will defend the interests of the men in the society. The European Union ...

The brain is divided into two hemispheres that work in a coordinated manner. In that context, the two hemispheres have been named the right and the left parts of the brain. While both sides have specific functions, research confirms that the parts work complementarily and that each plays a supportive role to the other. The brain works best in a coordinated manner with each side displaying dominance for particular functions. It is noteworthy that not any side can work independently and that coordination remains essential for effective learning and operations. On that premise, it is arguable that either side will control the ...

Our Undivided Brain

The psychological concept of “our divided brain” is based on the structure of the brain. The upper portions of the human brain are divided into two distinct parts namely the left and right hemispheres (Myers 76). The link between the two hemispheres (in a normal person) is referred to as the callosum. It comprises of a bundle of nerves that play a pivotal role in conveying data form one hemisphere to the other. The two hemispheres play different roles as far as the functioning of the body is concerned. In a vast majority of right handed people, the left hemisphere is the ...

1.Samuel Huntington's theory of the clash of civilizations is based on the idea of ​​global intergeneric conflict in the post Cold War between people with different cultural and religious identities, as he believed that such civilizations are inherently antagonistic to each other. 

Huntington also pointed out that after the "cold war" political and cultural world would become increasingly multipolar and would include eight major civilizations: Western, Islamic, Hindu, Chinese, Japanese, Orthodox, African and Latin American. In addition, the author highlighted the existence of a key country within each civilization, which would become leading not only in political and cultural aspects, but also in economical.

The Monroe Doctrine was based on the principle of dividing the world into the European and American systems of government. It proclaimed the concept of non-interference of the United States into the internal affairs of European countries ...

Criminal behavior

Psychopathy or sociopathy as it is called at times, is a type of personality disorder, clinically regarded as ‘Antisocial Personality Disorder’ (APD). Although a big percentage of incarcerated convicts may be described as suffering from APD, only about one-fourth of them could be diagnosed for psychopathy. Also only a small percentage of these psychopaths are violent offenders. Exhibition of superficial charm and persistent lying are the two common traits of psychopaths. The emotional deficit of psychopaths limits them to experience only a narrow range of emotions. Psychopaths are very skilled in projecting themselves in good light and can beat psychological tests.

The ability to learn a language is specific to humans due to the correspondence between the stage of language development demonstrated by a child and biological factors, such as weight of the brain and stage of motor development. There is a critical period for language acquisition in children, namely, between 18 months and early puberty. Within this period, language acquisition is normal, but outside it, language acquisition is difficult or even impossible. The external environment surrounding a child determines what type of language such an individual acquires. Lunneberg presented the evidence for a biological basis for a specifically linguistic ability. He drew a suggestive parallel ...

Li Bai, One of the World’s Greatest Poets In the greater scheme of things, it’s very rare that a poet is published in multiple languages. We may hear of it a lot, especially if you study poetry, but it’s usually the same group of names, from roughly the same time periods; a select hundred or so poets from the last couple centuries. They come primarily from the Western Hemisphere, and primarily in the Western Hemisphere their poetry remains, no matter how great it is. I know it’s great, because I’ve gotten to experience it now that ...

Introduction

During this time when child labor was rampant, several organizations came up to rescue the children from this injustice, and this led to the establishment of different learning centers. The result of the establishment of schools in the early 1900s saw significant changes in an education system that was made available and accessible to the children across the nation (Fraser, 2014). In late 1800 when it was now approaching the 19th century, it is notable that the number of public schools was mushrooming, and several nations saw the necessity for school attendance. By the period of the early ...

Exceptional Children-Dyslexia

There are no vibrant and internationally accepted delineations of learning disabilities, and it has sparked a worldwide deliberation. However, two definitions have gained acceptance over the rest globally. The definitions include the federal definition in IDEA and a definition that was suggested by the National Joint Committee on Learning Disabilities (NJCLD) (Ziegler & Goswami, 2011). IDEA delineates specific learning disabilities as a disorder in one/more psychological processes involved in comprehending or using a language, spoken or written. The disease may surface in an imperfect potential to speak, listen, read, write, spell or calculate mathematical expressions. These disorders include perceptual disabilities, minimal brain dysfunction, ...

Description of the Disease and its Symptoms

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a disorder associated with the degeneration of the nervous system. It is caused by multiple factors including genetic and environmental factors. Some of the symptoms of PD include difficulty in writing well, blurred speech, difficulty in performing automatic movement (such as swinging one’s arms), stooped posture and impaired balance, stiff muscles, shaking of the hands when relaxed and slow movement (Schapira, 2010). Tremor (shaking of the hands, arms, or legs when relaxed) is the first symptom that most patients notice. Problem with walking then develops, as the patient is unable to maintain body balance ...

UN POSITION ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS

There are more than two dozen countries of the world that have nuclear power, however, only a few have nuclear weapons and few are suspected of making nuclear weapons. During the cold war era between US and USSR, nuclear arms race was the most alarming feature as both the super powers rapidly built up their stockpiles of nuclear weapons. Later when both realized, there would be devastation caused by nuclear weapons, they embarked upon a number of agreements for reduction in the number of nuclear weapons. Efforts were speeded up after disintegration of the USSR; however, the issues remained a major challenge ...

The Reduction of Forces in the US Army

Killo Gibson Excelsior College - Introduction The case study of organization behavior that attracted me to investigate on is the “Reduction of Forces in the US Army”. The problem statement I want to specify is that the financial cost of US army has upsurged. The managerial issues are primarily being identified as the cause of this situation. While we want to cut off the military budget, we cannot ignore that the army is a cornerstone of one country that cannot be bargained. Therefore, it comes to strategically analyze the organizational problems in its leadership style, culture, communication ...

Introduction

Science fiction and disaster films often must take dramatic liberties with science and truth in order to serve a greater narrative purpose; events are compressed, effects are exaggerated, and realism and physics are thrown out the window in order to provide greater drama and spectacle (Revkin, 2004). In the movie The Day After Tomorrow, directed by Roland Emmerich in 2004, the world is subjected to global disasters brought about by climate change. The effects are myriad; global cooling sets New York in a coating of ice and freezing temperatures, glaciers crack and separate, and a “superstorm” is said to cause rapid climate ...

When it comes to adolescents making decisions for their own life, typically it depends on what the subject material is. By the time an individual reaches adolescence, they are picking what they want to wear, what they want to eat, and many of the movies they watch in their spare time. Parents begin to relinquish some of the rules they held over the individuals as children in order to let them grow, become independent, and learn lessons on their own. However, many ask where to draw the line. Adolescents are capable of making many decisions for themselves concerning small ...

Religion has been used as a form of excuse throughout history. Religion acted as the driving force for worse atrocities ever imagined in America. The Spanish made use of several atrocities to carry out the colonization process that ranged from offering human sacrifices, killing of innocent people and torturing people all in the name of religion. The main reason for Spanish colonization in North America was to explore, conquer and settle politically in most of the western hemisphere. The colonization process was started by the Spanish conquistadors and accelerated by the Monarchy of Spain. Since then, the Spanish have claimed ...

The Eurasian landmass has witnessed the spread of such major religions as Christianity and Islam. It is also where knowledge of philosophy, science and technology originated, shaping Western culture and thought. This cultural melting pot flourished because the peoples of the Eurasian landmass have been linked along cultural, religious and political lines for centuries; trade and war among other factors, stimulated the sharing of social experiences and improvements in technology and agriculture. The purpose of this essay is to explain how the integration of Eurasia came about between 1000 and 1600 CE up to eventual integration of the Americas ...

Classical music, according to Giraldez (31) affects the ability and the brain’s organization through rhythm and melody. Giraldez (31) further notes that the levels of serotonin that are produced by the brain are raised by rhythms. In explanation, he defines serotonin as a neurotransmitter that transmits nerve impulses that aid in maintaining jolly feelings. Giraldez (31) adds that when the brain produces serotonin, so is tension eased. In keeping with, Giraldez (31) depression results from scarce production of serotonin hormone and it are only released when the brain is positively shocked. An example is when one looks at a splendid ...
